I had the same warning message appear when using “BM” batteries in my R5. I put them on a shelf and didn’t use them for a few months. One day I decided to try them again and so far everything seems to work fine. However in looking at the specs on the BM batteries and and “Powerextra” off-brands, I notice a voltage variance. Canon LP-E6NH batteries show 7.2 volts. The off-brand batteries show 7.4 volts. The .2 volt difference could possibly cause issues, but I’m still using them without any more warnings or problems.

Nice portraits. I even like the background replacement’s, although they shaved a bit of hair on most.

Who told you that? I've sent lenses that were 15+ years old to Canon for repairs. Also, OP is in NY and Authorized Camera Repair is in PA, and possibly one of the best independent camera repair shops in PA and it's a lot closer to NY than IL so shipping would be less expensive.
I tried to send an EF 50 1.2 lens to Canon and was told it was out of date for repair. That's when I looked at Royal.

If your lens is more than a couple years old Canon will not repair it. I have used Royal Camera out of Illinois. It took about 3 weeks but the repair was done well as far as I can tell.

Thanks for the help and the research. I’m using a Flashpoint TTL flash in manual mode. I have the same flash without TTL. I’ll try that as well as disabling “speed from metering/ISO”. I also disabled “saftey switch” although both of these setting involve changes while in Auto ISO mode as I see it. They don’t seem to explain why auto iso would engage without manually setting it in the first place.

I'm not using custom settings. This issue occurs in the middle of continuous shooting. I'll take several shots in a row and then notice extreme overexposure. I check to find auto ISO has kicked in. This happens occasionally on all 4 R cameras I've owned. (2 R5, 2 R6). I'll be trying to use my Canon batteries as often as possible to see if it stops happening. I'm just hoping someone out there has the same issue. There's nothing I can see I'm doing to cause this.

I keep having problems with my R5 where the camera will jump to auto ISO from manual mode without my input. This is extremely annoying when shooting flash in dark rooms at weddings. The camera will go from 1600 to say 6400 and overexpose my manual flash. I had the same problem with 2 R6 units before returning them within 30 days through Adorama. I’m wondering if this issue could be related to using off-brand batteries, or to using a Flashpoint/Godex flash unit. Has anyone else experienced this phenomenon? Any ideas on what could be causing this would be greatly appreciated.
