Here's a catchall thread for customizing buttons and dials. Coming most recently from the R, I like having more buttons, but I'm a little surprised by a few limitations. Having used the 5DIV for three years before the R, I miss some of the default functions and the customizing.
One function that seems to have been demoted is Flash Exposure Compensation (FEC), which on the 5DIV shared a button with ISO. Now, on the R6, I'm seeing only two options for FEC. It can either be one of the items accessed by pressing M-Fn and then selecting FEC before adjusting, or it can be assigned to the lens dial, which I might come to like but seems a bit strange right now. No button can be dedicated to it.
Which brings up the forlorn RATE button, which might be very useful to some photographers, but I've never met one who uses it. I'd LOVE to see it customizable.
One thing that does look cool about the R5, it gains at least one customizable button with the little top-panel's LCD light button.
Any sharing of your customization, or hopes for a FW update that might bring a few more options, would be very interesting!
I think this thread could also be helpful for sharing how we use the C1, C2, C3 custom shooting modes.
