R6ii firmware updates
As it has been with everything else, including cameras... one should always install current firmware updates. It also resolves problems one may not even know about. Of course, you don't have to. You may never experience any issues with your R6, but if you do it will happen at the most inopportune time. More on reddit.com

EOS R6 Mark II: Firmware Version 1.6.0
I don't know how quickly they update the camera documentation, if its updated maybe there is something else you need to enable for it to work. Also, was your flash in TTL or M mode? It may only work if the flash is in TTL mode (which I never use). Just making guesses here. More on reddit.com

r/canon on Reddit: EOS R6 Mark II: Firmware Version 1.6.0
July 22, 2025 -

I just got an email for new firmware update for R6 II with #5 as the reason why I wanted to upgrade. I thought this would fix the issue of the camera disabling simulated exposure when a flash is attached. I updated firmware, checked the simulated exposure settings and nothing's changed and the camera still does the same thing. I guess #5 is useless still?
