I think the problem is here.
<input className="form-control" type={field.type} {...field.input} />
First time, field.input is undefined, so fields is blank object , and input field will like this, which is "an uncontrolled input".
<input>undefined</input>
And after type something in field, the field.input will have value,so be controlled component.
And maybe change to this:
<Field
label="Shop Logo"
name="image"
type="file"
component={MyFile}
dataAllowedFileExtensions="jpg png bmp"></Field>
/>
MyFile component:
class MyFile extends Component {
render() {
const { input,dataAllowedFileExtensions } = this.props
const onInputChange = (e) => {
e.preventDefault();
const files = [...e.target.files];
input.onChange(files);
};
return (
<div>
<input type="file"
onChange={onInputChange}
data-allowed-file-extensions={dataAllowedFileExtensions} />
</div>
)
}
}

Because it’s uncontrolled component, you probably want to leave it as:
<input type=“file”>
Then figure out how to process the input.
From:
React docs
In React, an input type="file" is always an uncontrolled component because its value can only be set by a user, and not programmatically.
You should use the File API to interact with the files. The following example shows how to create a ref to the DOM node to access file(s) in a submit handler:
<input type="file" ref={this.fileInput} />
