Canon EOS R5 Mark II Firmware 1.1.0 Released

Canon released a firmware update (download) for the Canon EOS R5 Mark II, version 1.1.0.

This is what is new:

• The security function has been improved.
  A password can now be requested when the power is turned on.
  • You will need to set a password the first time.
  • You can change the settings so that the password request screen does not appear.
  • You can check the history of password changes, network information changes, etc.
  • *Please refer to the detailed guide “Setting a Password” on cam.start.canon.
• You can now update the firmware on the camera alone by downloading it from the Internet.
• 100/120Hz flicker can now be automatically detected during live view.
• It is now possible to register the focus position in the preset function of the Camera Remote Application CR-A100. When used with the Robotic Camera System CR-S700R, this makes it easier for the photographer to focus on the intended subject distance and take pictures.
• The servo AF characteristics have been expanded to include [Case Special], which is suitable for shooting subjects through a net, such as badminton and volleyball.
• Added support for the digital camera software development support kit (EDSDK/CCAPI).
• A function has been added that allows you to protect an image at the same time as rating it.
• Improved image stabilization control for lenses that support peripheral coordinated control.
• Supports CFexpress cards up to 8TB.
  • Cards over 8TB require a low level format in the camera.
  • Any card over 8TB will be treated as an 8TB card.
  • Cards larger than 2TB cannot be used for firmware updates
• A setting has been added to lower the image capture frame rate to prevent heat generation when connecting the CR-A100 and taking remote shots over long periods of time.
• When transferring images with voice memos via FTP, the order of transfer has been changed to voice memo, then image. Also, if a voice memo is added to an image waiting to be transferred, the image and voice memo will be transferred last.
• The number of shots recorded during pre-continuous shooting can now be set in single increments.
• [Airplane Mode] has been added to the shooting button customization.
• It is now possible to simulate exposure when using a strobe.
• AF tracking performance has been improved for subjects that are difficult to focus on when shooting video.
• Fixed an issue that could cause Err70 to occur when enlarging the display after shooting with [Blackout Free Display] set to “On” and [Servo AF 1st Frame Release/One-Shot AF Release] set to “Release Priority.”
• Fixed an issue where Err70 could occur during Bluetooth communication due to interference from other Bluetooth devices.
• Fixed the phenomenon that Err70 would very rarely occur when repeatedly shooting in “High-speed continuous shooting +”.
• Fixed the phenomenon that Err70 would very rarely occur when shooting with the electronic shutter immediately after starting up the camera.
• Fixed the phenomenon that Err70 occurs very rarely when recording video with the “FHD239.8P/200.0P” setting.
• Fixed an issue that occasionally caused Err70 to occur when using the camera in movie mode with the frame rate set to “50.00P” and [Movie Digital IS] set to “On” or “Strong.”
• Fixed an issue that could cause Err70 to occur while waiting to shoot when [Pre-recording] was set to “On” and [Auto Transfer] to image.canon was set to “Yes”.
• Fixed an issue that could cause the camera to stop working properly if [Review] was set to “Off” and the monitor displayed a low brightness image after taking pre-continuous shots.
• Fixed an issue that could cause video recording to be impossible when using remote live view shooting in EOS Utility with HDMI output.
• Fixed an issue where large RAW images could not be transferred via Camera Connect.
• Fixed an issue where horizontal lines would momentarily appear in the viewfinder.
• Fixed the issue of being unable to connect to a Wi-Fi 7 compatible router.
