Canon EOS R5 C Rejected for Netflix Certification

The Canon EOS R5 C has been rejected for Netflix Certification. This means Netflix has rejected the Canon EOS R5C for production certification. Also Canon doesn’t have any intention to address the issue like Sony did with the FX3.

Neither Netflix or Canon has spoken directly on why the camera was denied, but the only thing we think that the camera lacks Canon Log-2.
