![]() A few times I have forgotten to turn the 5DS bodies off and after a week sitting in my camera bag that seems to deplete the batteries. One difference I noted with the 5DS series compared to my 1 series cameras is leaving the power switch on does seem to result in fairly rapid battery drain even when the camera is not in use. It sometimes seems short to me but I primarily do sports shooting with my 1DX series bodies and I have gone past 5,000 captures with the 1DX III on a single battery. I don't use live view and I have image review set so that it doesn't automatically show the image after capture so I get good battery life out of my cameras. ![]() ![]() I try not to run the battery down below 1/4 and I think about 1,200 was the most shots I have gone between battery changes but it could go further. I use a battery grip with dual batteries because I am used to having duplicate controls for both landscape and portrait orientation from my other camera bodies so battery life is essentially doubled with that setup.
