Now my third one has the dreaded CLOCK RESET....every single time u swap battery. Every. Single time. Im not sure if this body has in body charging, but ill look into it..because this is some real BS. Teh internal clock battery fail is not user serviceable.

What's the story with this?  After reading this, I took the battery out of my new (refurbished) m6 ii, waited a few seconds, and put it back in.  Date and time reset!

It doesn't appear that any other settings have reset -- that I can tell.

I just received the camera from canon this week.  Should I be notifying Canon, and sending the camera back?  Or is this just "a thing" I have to deal with?
