Either I am missing something or R5 MKII doesn't support anamorphic mode?
Somebody please tell me I am missing something. It was very clear and easy to set up on R5C!

are you asking if this camera supports anamorphic lenses? It supports anamorphic lenses as far as I know. I have seen youtube videos shot at 16:9 format.

Thanks for your answer. Can you link the videos please, I cannot find any.
The R5C had a whole menu for anamorphic desqueeze, with several options, x1.3, x1.6, x1.8 and x2, if I remember correctly.
The R5 MKII has no such menu, nor options. I spent an hour looking for it, I also read the released manual and there is no mention of anamorphic.
This is very, very strange. I am hoping I missed something, otherwise it's such a big miss for Canon.

No specifically for the Mark II but for the Mark I.

I do not think that the R5 Mk 1 or 2 have a way to squish the image into the anamorphic view in camera.

Greetings,
I'm also looking but I don't see it either. Searched anamorphic and squeeze... no hits. The R5 and R5mkII are stills (first) centric cameras that happen to support video. The R5 C is a video (first) centric camera that takes remarkable stills too.
I did a bunch of searches, on the web, everything points to no anamorphic correction support (in camera) on the R5 mkII based on what I found.

I think that that's the major difference, the R5 C is designed for video while the R5 Mk1 and Mk2 are designed for Still even when they can capture video.

Thanks a lot guys. That clears it up for me. I am not thinking I am mad anymore :))
I understand the reasoning for Canon, but what a miss. I have to say a BIG MISS.
I hope firmware comes out, otherwise I might just go back to R5C or maybe even skip to Sony system.
