The R5 firmware would have been pulled too if that were the case. Just checked on my R5 1080/120(100) with an EF lens - all working fine

The R5 and R6 firmware are not identical despite the numbering. Looks like there's a 1.3.1 firmware now out for the R6.

I've got the R5 and R6.
I installed the 1.3.0 firmware eon the R5 and no issues so far.

My R6 arrived on the day the firmware was released so luckily I didn't update it and 1.3.0 was pulled, I've since installed 1.3.1 and no issues identified.
