EOS R5 Mark II: Customizing the M-FN Button?

[swood]

I can't figure out how to select or deselect the various functions that are accessible via the M-FN button.

Customize Controls/Customize Buttons Tab and Menu, select the M-FN button.  Lke on the R5, selecting "dial function" and then "info/detail set" brings us the various options that can be selected by the dial (or repeated press of the m-fn button.  On the R5, one would  simply tap a function icon on the screen to enable or disable it, as indicated by the presence or absence of a check mark. But on the R5 MK II, tapping an icon just moves it around, which sometimes causes another icon to disappear.  And there are one or two icons labeled "off" (it varies).  There's no obvious way to turn an individual option on or off.  There is nothing in the manual that I can find that explains how this works on the MKII  Has anyone figured this out?

Wait for a firmware update.

Is this a known bug?

Have your tried using the SET button on the camera to toggle the check mark and the main / quick control dials to navigate through the functions instead of the touchscreen? 

[swood]

Thanks. Yes, I’ve tried that and it doesn’t work either. There are no checkmarks displayed and no way to select or omit the various functions. Hovering over a function and selecting it, whether on the screen or with the SET button Sometimes there’s nothing, and sometimes duplicates the function so that it just displayed two or three times.

Sounds like a bug then

FYI, I called Canon USA support this morning about this issue. They were unable to offer any solutions, and it seems as if I’m the first one to report it. Lucky me 🙂

Maybe other photographers found the standard "dial function" setting too complex and simply swapped it to something simpler, and that's why it's not been reported. All my cameras have the ISO setting on the M-Fn button.

It’s my understanding that Canon has been made aware of issues associated with Custom Controls settings. There must be countless scenarios in which it could fail.  You may very well be the first to report issues with the [M-FN] button. But there seems to be a broad common denominator in play.  The entire Custom Control sub-menu.

I just answered this question on DPReview; @swood it looks like you posted there at the same time...? Instead of reentering the information here, I'll give you a link to that post: Editing M-Fn DIAL FUNC settings on R5 Mk II . Hope this helps you out!
