Hello R5 mkII owners. Canon has released new FW for the R5 mkII. This corrects a performance issue with touch and drag AF when the AF Area is set to "Full Area AF"
This is not a widely used feature, nonetheless Canon has fixed the behavior. If it is a feature you use, you can grab FW v1.3.1 from the R5 mkII's Support Portal.
