Changes in firmware:

The new firmware (version 1.6.0) incorporates the following enhancements:
  1. Support for the RF 85mm f/1.2L USM DS lens has been added.
  2. Corrects a phenomenon in which the function or setting value assigned to the control　ring may change when the control ring is operated in Eco mode.
  3. Corrects a phenomenon in which the camera may stop operating properly during “auto transfer” when using Camera Connect with a Wi-Fi connection.
  4. Corrects a phenomenon in which high-speed synchronization with use of an external flash may not operate properly depending on the camera’s setting for C.Fn2 “Set shutter speed range”.

Firmware Version 1.6.0 is for cameras with firmware up to Version 1.4.0. If the camera's firmware is already Version 1.6.0, it is not necessary to update the firmware.
Once the EOS R is updated to Version 1.6.0 (or later), it cannot be restored to a previous firmware version (Version 1.0.0 to 1.4.0).
