EOS R5 shows 512 GB CFexpress Card capacity as 59.4 GB

[raylinds]

I just purchased an EOS R5 and updated the firmware to the latest 2.1. I purchased a Lexar Silver CFexpress card that is listed as compatible. The card is 512GB, but when I format it shows as 59.4 GB and camera estimates 954 photos (much too low). Canon format instructions say the GB listed may not be accurate, but that and the number of shots seem way off. I confirmed on a card reader the card is, in fact 512GB.

Is there a problem or is it safe to assume the camera will use the entire card and only the estimates are inaccurate? Thanks, Ray
