No Fv Mode on the R50?

Re: No Fv Mode on the R50?

Lack of Fv mode is the least of my worries about the R50, mainly because I use Fv to reach the exp comp and ISO controls rather than to swap between what would effectively be Av and Tv modes.  I miss it on the 5Ds (I don't use it often enough to remember which of the row of four buttons is which), but not on my various EOS M cameras.  With those it's quicker to dab on the screen exp comp scale or the ISO setting and adjust with the control dial than to rotate the rear dial to highlight them and then adjust. It would be more difficult to do the former while squinting through the little EVF of the R50 as you would be relying on muscle memory of the positions on the screen rather than feeling for a physical button.
