EOS R5 Mark II - aperture control

Cms21

Hello,

I am using RF 24 - 240 lens with my camera. The control ring does not change aperture when Pre-cont. shooting is enabled. It works otherwise. I am using FV mode. Wondering if this is a software bug.

Have anyone else faced this issue?

If you are using Fv mode, then you need to describe your Fv mode settings.   The OVF display should tell which controls to use.  

Just remember.  You cannot have more than one control adjusting the same setting.  If the lens control ring doesn’t adjust Aperture, then it is probably because it control on the camera body does it.

Thank you for your quick response. The problem, however goes away as soon as I turn the pre-cont. off. No other settings touched.

I'm pretty sure it depends on the lens. On my R5 II, the control ring works, when in pre continuous, on some lenses and doesn't on others, regardless of the mode (M, Av, Tv, Fv). The lenses I just tested are "L" except the RF 100-400mm and the RF 200-800 (both rings worked). BTW, I have 6 RF L and 2 RF non-L, but I don't have the 24-240. You may have a lens that isn't compatible with pre continuous, although I can't imagine why any, yours or mine, aren't 🤔
