R5 RAW quality settings

[DonMyers]

I recently bought a Canon R5. I also own an R7. On the R7, there are several choices for RAW quality setting. I see only one on the R5. There must be a way to set high, medium and low RAW settings on the R5. I've looked at the manual and some articles. I can't find an answer. This pertains to photos, not video.

Thanks for the help. When using an RF-S lens, it changes it to 1.6 automatically and won't let you change it.

Once you un-mount the lens and place a full frame lens on there you will have the ability to make the change. The camera most of the time unless it is a 3rd party off brand recognizes the lens type and makes the correct adjustment. It does the same for Sigma and I believe Tamron (not 100% sure). Mount and non-EF S lenses and it will be fine.

Thank you all for your help and advice. Now I have a new question. I want to by a 24-70 F2.8 lens. What is the difference between 2.8 L USM and 2.8 L IS USM?  The L IS USM is cheaper than the L USM. Why?

"2.8 L USM and 2.8 L IS USM"

Going from exactly what you wrote in your question,  2.8 L USM does not have image stabilization (IS) while the 2.8 L IS USM does offer image stabilization. A lens that offers IS will always cost you just a bit more but can be helpful depending on your style of photography. Here is the information for the R7 IBIS (In Body Image Stabilization), you can find more about the R7 Specifications here if you would like to view the full PDF's: R7 Specifications

You guys are great. Now I have a new issue. My R5 runs out of battery way too quickly. It seems to run out of battery whether I'm taking photos or not. I charged the battery this morning and within four hours it has to be recharged. Any ideas.

Hey Don, when you say "My R5 runs out of battery way too quickly. It seems to run out of battery whether I'm taking photos or not."

Is the power on the entire time or does it drain when it's powered down?

If it occurs when the power is on what are your WiFi and Bluetooth settings? If they are on you may want to shut them off and enable airplane mode and see if the issue stops.
