    Caution on upgrading to firmware 1.2.0 for the EOS R. I eagerly updated my EOS R to firmware 1.2 and discovered that it disabled the M-Fn bar (the slider bar which reviewers love to hate but I find works very well). I tried everything to get it to work on f 1.2 but no success.

    It works fine on firmware 1.1.0 and 1.0.0. I downgraded back to 1.1.0 so all back to normal.

    In my eagerness to get the new Servo AF installed I downloaded f 1.2 on 19 April from the Canon Canada although in Australia. I notice that it has not been made available on Canon Australia website. That will teach me to be patient. The Canon programmers must be under pressure to let out an update with such a major bug.
    Otherwise just love my EOS R. My 7D is is being neglected.
