Canon EOS R1 New Firmwave Available

Firmware Version 1.0.2 is available

Firmware for the Canon EOS R1 has been made available and is slowly being updated on Canon's various websites.

Firmware version 1.0.2 seems like a very modest release with just a few adjustments.  Canon has adjusted the display of the internal camera temperature warning indicator, and also some issues that the camera had with autofocus in specific zoom ranges (those ranges are not listed).

You can view the firmware version release notes below;

Firmware Version 1.0.2 incorporates the following enhancement and fix:
1. Optimizes the timing of the camera's display of its internal camera temperature warning indicator.
2. Fixes an issue that may interfere with the camera's ability to focus properly when using AF (autofocus) in certain zoom ranges.

If the camera's firmware is already Version 1.0.2, it is not necessary to update the firmware.
