R6Mii Weird Function / Display Behavior
1

A few weeks into using the R6Mii (firmware updated), I observed something odd specifically when an EF lens is attached with an adapter (Canon original):

  • Powered up, changed the focus using the nipple/joystick then touched the AF button, and the display moves to the menu. 
  • As it moves to the menu, I half-press the shutter to bring the camera back to shooting mode.
  • I press the AF button again and move the nipple/joystick to select focus and it goes back to the menu again, with the display flickering this time.
  • I power down the camera and power it up again after 2-3 seconds and the problem goes away.

Happened 2-3x over the past 2-3 weeks. It was even more weird before the firmware update, and I thought it would go away after the firmware update.

Anyone else running into this?

Camera is securely kept in the bag with generous space when not in use, so nothing is pressing against its body and buttons.

Using only original Canon batteries.
