Canon added password protection to some cameras

Canon has added password protection to 10 of its cameras: EOS R1, EOS R3, EOS R5 Mark II, EOS R5, EOS R6 Mark II, EOS R7, EOS R8, EOS R10, EOS R50, and the EOS R50V, according to news posted here.

While some level of protection has been requested by photographers, imagine a wildlife photographer having to enter a password just as a bird or animal suddenly appears in view. A password prompt when turning the camera on for the first time might make sense—but not when waking the camera from sleep mode.
