When you cannot just switch over to do video as you are doing stills, the external recorder comment is crap.
a) Only a dedicated video shooter is interested in the external record and 4K, ain't nobody else giving a darn about that because they aren't going to pull the cards out and attach an external recorder, because then they cannot shoot stills.
b) Canon marketed (and raised the price accordingly) because this is an 8K video shooter. But alas it is very, very limited in that regard to almost being non-existent, and even with an external recorder, you are hosed. I suspect there several EU consumer protections that will be utilized to send things back, because Canon advertises something that cannot be realized in everyday shooting, and that will fail some of the consumer warranty regulations.
So many folks are left feeling pretty bad that they have to spend this for what is supposed to be an 8K video capable camera and quite frankly it isn't, and to boot, the stills side has some risks as well when it comes to overheating. So not only are you paying for video with this camera, you are paying for video capabilities that aren't really there in day to day shooting as you need it without going through hoops like 2-3 hour cooldowns, external monitors attached to your camera, etc.
