Are you on the most recent firmware? There was a bug where the first shot in a series could be blurry because of IBIS. It was fixed at some point.

Overall, electronic shutter on the R6 and the R5 has a very limited use IMHO and is not recommended as a default shooting mode as it has too many limitations. It's best to be used in special cases such as when you actually need the silent shutter or high speed continuous shooting etc.

I used v1.5.2, including while shooting these samples, which is the most current as of 3/17/22, and even today.

I will default to the mechanical shutter.

The mechanical shutter will cause shutter shock at the shutter speeds you were using in your photos posted in this thread. Electronic first curtain shutter is the default one.

Can confirm, unfortunately.

My R lived in mechanical shutter mode, since the issue was not nearly as prevalent. With the R6, I have to use 1st curtain below 1/200 or limit the auto ISO to a minimum of 1/200

With my R5 @ 105mm I'm fine at 1/250th, so that's the minimum shutter speed for the C-mode for Av + full mechanical shutter. I use that C mode when shooting at wide apertures.

45 is more than enough, but 500.000 isn't
