After one week with the R5 I have settings programmed to C1, C2 & C3. I access by pressing the MODE button then rotating Quick Control Dial 1 and pressing SET. This all takes time and I would dearly love to speed up the process with minimal steps.

Is there a way of progamming one of the readily accessible buttons, e.g. AF point selection button so that when pressed a group of settings, such as those programmed to either C1, C2 or C3, become available? In other words "one-touch".

Yes, I have the M.Fn button set to cycle through them. I don't have the camera or the manual to hand to walk you through it, but if you go to Customise Buttons it's easy to do.

Many thanks, yes that works.  Seems it is as close as I'll get to "one-touch".
