Canon’s LP-E6P battery was first shown off with the launch of the EOS R5 Mark II back in July, 2024. The new Lithium-Ion cell that sports the same amount of juice (2130mAh, 16 Wh and 7.2v) as the prior LP-E6NH pack, but now has a continuous discharge rate of 6A – needed for some of the more power-hungry processes found in the EOS R5 Mark II such as 8K as well as some 4K video options, a the pre-continuous shooting mode will become inaccessible and the top shooting speed reduced.
Of course, the Canon EOS R1, which shares many of the same latest features as the EOS R5 Mark II, but uses the larger and more powerful LP-E19, the same as found in the EOS R3 - both sport a built-in grip for more battery space.
