Canon PLEASE upgrade the firmware for the BG-R10 for the R6Mk3 (and R5Mk2)

[imagewerkx]

Hello Canon, 

I'm an owner of the BG-R10 battery grip and am on the pre-order list for the soon-to-be-released R6Mk3. I noticed that my BR-R10 works (kinda) with my R5Mk2 but since it doesn't recognize the LP-E6P battery, some functions are disabled.  Since the new R6Mk3 will use the same battery, COULD YOU PLEASE, PRETTY PLEASE UPDATE THE FIRMWARE IN THE BG-R10 to be fully compatible with the new battery (and associated cameras)?   I'm as much of a Canon fanboy (been using Canon gear for over 50 years) as the next guy (or gal), but the battery grips are grossly overpriced. Please help me and fellow photographers maximize our investment.  

Thanks, 

Marc

I don't know if that will happen since the -R10 wasn't intended for the R5 Mark II.

Thanks for responding John.  

It doesn't hurt to ask. ;^)
