Canon 90D, RP, and M6 Mark II to get firmware update for 24p

Apparently even Canon at times listens.. The-digital-picture posted this note from Canon USA stating that the recent omission of 24p will be corrected with 24p added into the 90D, M6 Mark II, RP and G series powershots for both 4K and 1080p.

From Canon U.S.A.:

In response to feedback from our customers about some of our recently launched EOS and PowerShot models, Canon plans to introduce 24p mode (23.98fps) for movie recording via a series of future firmware updates for select models.
