EOS R5 mark ii beeper frequency

[WillyKano]

I’m a 70 year old photographer and I got recently a Canon R5 mark ii, that I mostly use for birding: great camera for this!!!

But I tried recently my RF100 macro F2.8 lens for taken a macro picture of a snowdrop flower in my miniature studio with led illumination.

Therefore I had put my R5m2 on a tripod because I came out on a shutter time of more than 1 second. So I choose for a delayed shutter of 2 seconds to avoid movement when I press the shutter.

Normally I should hear a beep tone for 2 seconds but I didn’t hear it, although my wife did hear it (she is 69 years old😀, but I have been into the army and lost the hearing of high tones). i did see the 2 seconds flash light.

On my previous camera, a Pentax K1mii, I did hear the beep tone of the delayed shutter.

Is there a way to choose a lower frequency of the beeper on the Canon R5 mark Ii?

I searched the manual, but didn’t find t.

Willy,

There is no way to change the tone but you can turn up the volume. The settings are in the menu, yellow/gold wrench. I have the same issue due to many years of Pheasant hunting and Trap/Skeet. The only time I lower it is when I am shooting wildlife or street.

Here is a link to the online manual. R5 MkII manual
