The Canon BG-R20EP Battery Grip with Ethernet Port is compatible with the Canon R5, but the Ethernet port does not work on that camera. The Ethernet port only works with the Canon R5 Mark II.

I already ordered it but I'd like to know if it is compatible with the C-type tether cable I already have? Tks in advance!
Asked by: Yo
The Canon BG-R20EP Battery Grip with Ethernet Port does not have a USB-C connection, but instead, it has Ethernet. Therefore, using a computer with an Ethernet port (plus an ethernet cable) is recommended, but you can still use a USB-C cable from the camera to a computer whether you are using the grip or not.

The Canon BG-R20EP Battery Grip with Ethernet Port is not a wireless grip like the WFT-R10 is, so it does not have that issue. It can use the two batteries in the grip to power the camera.

Is the ethernet port able to be used as an additional stills tether port as a more stable connection port than the USBc?

Yes because the ethernet connection on the Canon BG-R20EP is 2.5G (up to 2500Mbps) while USB-C is only up to 480 Mbps. Plus ethernet connections can be longer and the USB.
