Following the release, and subsequent suspension, of firmware version 1.3.0, Canon has now released v1.3.1 for the EOS R6 camera which incorporates the new features offered by v1.3, and fixes to phenomena.
Firmware version 1.3.1 incorporates the following fixes and enhancements:
1. Adds [IPB (Light)] to 4K to enable lower bit rate shooting.
2. Adds [Electronic full-time MF] to the AF tab of the menu. When a
lens is attached, manual focus adjustment is always possible with both
One-shot AF and Servo AF.
3. The transfer time (estimated value) now displays on the camera monitor during FTP transfer.
4. Fixes a phenomenon, in which in rare instances, the camera cannot
function normally when the drive mode is set to "High-speed continuous
shooting" to shoot still images continuously.
5. Fixes a phenomenon that may corrupt the image displayed in the viewfinder.
6. Fixes a phenomenon in which the power may become suspended when the
camera is powered via USB for an extended period of time.
7. Fixes a
phenomenon, in which the camera stops to operate normally when the
movie cropping setting is set to [Enable] for performing movie shooting
in Firmware Version 1.3.0.
Firmware version 1.3.1 is for cameras
with firmware up to v1.3.0. If the camera's firmware is already v1.3.1, it is not necessary to update the firmware.
