Canon EOS R3 and Canon EOS R5 to receive new firmware next week

On the 195fps mode it is interesting and much more useful that you can limit the number of shots in the burst. Something like a 10-20 shot burst that is cleared from the buffer in less than a couple of seconds makes it much more useable, IMO. That is of course, if it has a customizable button available to toggle it on and off. We'll see what people come up with.

That’s what I’m thinking. Since it’s a drive mode, it could be assigned in a C# mode to easily toggle in/out of that mode.

I don't shoot video, as an R5 stills shooter I'm very, very underwhelmed by this update.

Then it is something in the settings. Most likely back button focusing. I have no issues with R5 (2 years) or R3 and when a friend of mine that had freezing issues on R5 loaded my settings into his the issues stopped. He was using BBF and I am not.

You should contact Canon and let them know you have solved this issue, since their engineers have been unable to do so,

I was thinking about it a little more and think this would be a near perfect use of the "Recall Shooting Function" button. The option allows you to choose a lot of parameters and set them to a single button and you autofocus with it and all the attached settings. That way you can shoot normal up until you know you want the speed and use that button to shoot at the high speeds, and then release it and you are back to normal again.

I only would know why Canon don’t fix the Electronic shutter limitation to Max 0,5 seconds on the R5.
It is annoying not to be allowed to use the focus bracketing for sunsets on the R5 while it is possible with R7 and even R10 (obviously possible also in the R3).

Canon rarely, if ever, backports common sense updates. The R5-II will likely get the fix.
