It stops charging the LP-E6N and doesn't not deliver power to the camera. However, when I turn the camera on it does nothing.
#CANON EOS CR2016 BATTERY PORTABLE#
I have the Anker PowerCore Slim 10000 PD, USB-C Portable Charger (18W), 10000mAh Power Delivery Power Bank and it will charge the LP-E6N when the camera is off. Great if you're in a studio setting but if you're out in public where there is no outlet, its useless.ġ) does it charge battery when R5 is powered off ?Ģ) Does it allow camera to operate without the battery or when battery is depleted ?ģ) Does it allow R5 to operate and charge battery at this same time ? The Power Adapter PD-E1 requires a wall outlet. It works with my Anker power pack (Anker PowerCore+ 26800 PD) without issue. This way, if your cord is ever disconnected, the camera keeps working.ĭoes anyone with a PD-E1 care to share a photo of the back of the adapter or copy down the specs to see what output it has? I think it's too early for us to know what features the USB-C PD charger will need to support in order to support live power, but in my opinion, it's better to have a solution which provides charging/power at the same time, even if it means the camera draws from the battery as it charges. There are a huge varieties of voltages and amperages which a charger can provide, so your wish for "any" isn't going to happen, just as you can't power your laptop from "any" USB-C charger. Not just using the overpriced Canon PD-E1 Adapter. I would like to be able to power the R5 using any USB-C PD charger and battery pack.

Maybe your PD device isn’t powerful enough? “Ability to operate and shoot with the camera while charging with Power Adapter PD-E1 is possible.”Īs opposed to the R and RP which are “charging only”. It will charge when powered off, but will not Power the camera. And you want to do that when not in use anyway to keep the camera cool. Is this a desired feature?įrom what I read, is the camera will charge if powered off. It would be great to be able to plug the camera in and use power straight from the external battery.

I keep a fully charged Anker USB-C Power Delivery (PD) battery pack with me to charge batteries in the field. The EOS R5 has the capability to charge batteries via the USB-C port.
