EOS R5 : AV setting remains visible

I have just purchased a canon EOS R5 and note that, unlike my EOS 80D, the AV setting remains visible in the window when I switch the camera off. Can you tell me if this is correct and if it is does it deplete the battery life?

Thank you Kpee

Greetings,

This is the default behavior and expected.  My top LCD turns black with a battery inserted and the camera is shut off.  Don't worry, it doesn't affect battery life.  If you're not going to be using your camera In the next 7 days or more I'd remove the battery.  Storing your camera with a battery installed for an extended period of time is not a good practice.  Congrats on your R5.  It's quite an upgrade from your 80D which is also a great device.
