Firmware Version 1.1.2 for the Canon EF 400mm f2.8L IS III USM lens and for the EF 600mm f4L IS III USM lens incorporates the following enhancement:
1. Increases the manual focus speed when the manual focus speed switch is set to 1 or 2.
*The speed when the switch is set to 3 (slowest speed) will be unchanged.
2. Improves the image stabilisation effect during handheld shooting with a slow shutter speed when used with EOS 5D Mark IV, EOS 6D, or EOS R.
*In addition, this firmware enables a full-time manual focus function during AI Servo AF when used with the EOS-1D X Mark II. The lens must be sent to the Factory Service Center in order for this function to be enabled.
