Re: R5 overheating is horrible ....
I haven't tried the r5 it but I've been using just a regular small (desk?) fan to cool hdd. Works wonders. Even if I don't use the fan the hdd's cool off in minutes, say under half hour. I suppose you can't have the fan on due to the noise screwing up the video sound but as soon as you turn off the camera maybe put it under a fan?
I'm not saying you're giving an inaccurate report but what you're saying isn't adding up so I'm not sure what is going on. I just don't see how it could stay that hot so long? FWIW I don't see that on hdd's anyway. I might throw it in the fridge being careful on the condensation?
OK just saw your post on hot card maybe pull it or change cards? Pitb but Even your hand can be a heat sink of sorts. Maybe tape copper or aluminum somewhere to disdupdate the heat? Long shot but it might help. Kinda doubt it but might be worth trying
