    Firmware Update 2.2 for E-M1 Mk II.

    Now there is another firmware update that includes other little fixes besides compatibility fixes for lenses I don't have.

    Ver.2.2
    (Aug. 30 2018)
    Stability of operation when shooting still images has been improved.
    Corrected issue of C-AF not operating correctly when using the "LEICA DG SUMMILUX 25mm / F1.4 ASPH.(H-X025)" interchangeable lens produced by Panasonic.
    I've done the update now (I had skipped 2.1) & the one thing that may change (with settings automatically saved with the Camera Updater) is the SD Card Slot Settings, particularly if turning the camera on without one or both SD cards in. It's easily updated in Menu H1 though.

    Just as a matter of caution, another user believes he lost something after the update.

    Well, I found my first change. I can no longer set the FN lever action independently in Custom Sets.

    Normally I use it to switch from S-AF to C-AF, and in C3(Manual) It will change the dials from Shutter/Fstop to ISO/Exposure Comp. With the new firmware, the lever setting (mode) is NOT saved in Custom modes.
    I can confirm that the normal fn buttons seem to be saving though.

    Figures that I just found a button setup for fast action that I like, and now cant use.

    You can downgrade from the newer version for now while Olympus sorts this out/or not:

    Wow, that worked perfectly. Im sticking with 2.1.

    Edit: I may have been mistaken, it exhibits the same behavior in 2.1 and according to Wrotniak's page, the FN lever setting is not retained in the custom modes, so maybe I was just wrong the whole time.

    Edit2: if anyone has any suggestions on using exposure comp when using auto iso and manual, id love suggestions. Setting a button to exposure comp does absolutely nothing.
