I bought a brand-new EOS R6 in September 2021, three years later it started freezing constantly. I've read every single post I can find and tried every single suggestion (firmware, battery, memory card).
I'm not using a battery grip (but have in the past). I have tried turning off the wi-fi. still no joy.
The ONLY thing that clears the freeze is to take the battery out. But then the very next photo it freezes again.
I can't believe I spent nearly $3000 on a camera and can't use it. I'm very disappointed in Canon.

It is important that you answer ALL of these questions completely with lenses, mount adapters, speedlites and batteries please use the FULL NAME of the item in question. Using the name "Canon 24-105mm" lens isn't good enough or complete. Canon has made multiple lenses with that name in the EF and RF Mounts.

I agree with Demetrius’ request that you try to fully answer all of his questions. Help someone to help you.

You didn’t use full names for the EF 70-200mm F/2.8L & EF 50mm F/1.8 lenses. What are the Full names. That is not good enough because there are multiple versions of those lenses. The names are also incomplete.

Apparently I am not nearly as smart as you because I have no idea what else you want me to tell you. What do you mean by "You didn't use full names for the EF 70-200 mm..." I used the entire name that I know. What else do you want me to tell you? There is nothing else on the equipment for me to provide.

Hi there,
Here to hopefully help clarify! Those lenses have various versions so there is a bit more to add to the end of the lens name. What I mean by that is for example, the EF 70-200mm F/2.8L has 4 potential models:
EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM
EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS III USM
EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM
EF 70-200mm f/2.8L USM
Do you happen to know which version you have?

My beginning post said "please use the FULL NAME of the item in question". Every Canon lens spells out its full name on it. Here are some example lenses where you can find the FULL NAME of the lenses you have.
Here is a picture of an example picture of a lens. This may NOT be your exact lens. So please provide the full name of yours.

I think it would also be helpful to know the brand and the model(s) of memory card(s) being used.
