I recently purchased a Canon R10 Mirrorless DSLR camera. It managed to repeatedly drain the battery in just a few days despite being turned off. The retailer from whom I bought the camera, were exceedingly helpful. They gave me a new battery and later a new camera body when the problem persisted. When that failed they supported me in exchanging the camera for a different model - an R50. This happened again in just 5 days. I fully charged the battery, took 2 photos and it's been off otherwise. On the fifth day the battery was flat. In all, I've had 3 bodies (2 x R10 and 1 x R50) and 4 batteries in under two months, yet the problem persists. Any thoughts? Any similar issues for others?

I don't typically leave a battery in my camera for more than 2 or 3 days. However, I have on occasion left one in a week without any drop in battery percentage. We'll look forward to hearing back from you in a few days. 🙂
