I'm about to do a similar video for the EOS R5. One thing that really would help is if Canon would allow us to save configurations so you can pull them up later. When I got my second EOS R5 it would have been so much easier to clone settings from one camera to the other. I know this ability exists with the Canon 1D series bodies and with as customizable as the new R-series bodies are in I really hope Canon makes this 'cloning' feature available, I've been asking for it since the 5D Mk4.

@wanneske1969 Год назад

@maginashun 3 года назад

Nice insight into how a wedding photographer would have their camera set. 14:25 surprised you enabled Continuous AF since you go on to mention choosing certain settings to save battery life. Enabling that setting makes the AF constantly hunt even when you aren't doing anything.

@JoshuaMcTackett 3 года назад

You can turn off continual AF and set the AF to back button (AF-ON) autofocus. That's what I do and always use continuous AF. Once I've locked AF for a still subject, I just release the button

@gregdurfee1915 3 года назад

Thanks for doing this Vanessa, I found it very useful. I followed along with my camera as you went over the settings in the menus. After I received my camera, I updated the firmware to 1.1.1 and watched your video; there were a few differences between your video and what my camera displayed, but not many. I stumbled across something that may be a useful shrortcut. If menu is selected, and you roll the Quick control dial 2 back and forth, it scrolls through the top level tabs, and it shows where I last left it. For example, I regularly format the SD cards after I've uploaded everything. So, when I roll over to the wrench tab, it's right where I left it "wrench-1-Format card". All I have to do is press the set button, and I'm off to format the cards in turn.

@shaungibbs7400 3 года назад

Just a heads up. There is a current issue with IBIS and the fully mechanical shutter (only) where shots have vertical blurring at a shutter speed of 1/100. Canon have acknowledged this and will release a fix in a firmware update. For now it is best to use electronic first curtain until fixed. I also use the AWB-W (white) setting to give more colour consistency over a set of images.

@VanessaJoy 3 года назад

thanks for the heads up :-)

3 года назад

The R6 uses both the processor and algorithms from the pro-sports 1D X Mark III body, and Canon say the tracking may be even better. The camera also provides the same AF configuration settings, which lets you select a 'Case' that describes the movement of your subject. These include an 'Auto' case that it supposed to adapt to the subject you're shooting as it detects its movement.

@PeterSzaban 3 года назад

I just got an R6 with firmware v1.2.0, and if I remove the lens and EF adapter from the camera, then switch the camer a on and go into the menu system, the options will appear.Maybe a bug? Maybe those options intentionally show up with some lenses and not others? I don't know, but I now see the "hand" in the lower left corner of the viewfinder, so I assume it's working.

@whitneydunham8437 3 года назад

Hey Vanessa ! I have been watching multiple different custom setup vids to see what would work best for me. Do you always keep your AF set to servo and face detection? Do you ever switch to single point selection or touch and drag ? I'm thinking of when people aren't looking at the camera or there or more than one person in the frame such as children.

@VanessaJoy 3 года назад

I also have touch and drag enabled so that while it’s on face detection I can easily tap on any person if there’s a group of people in my frame. If I need to go to single point I have my custom button set to be able to do that really quickly

if you get lenses that are EF lenses (they'll say that in the beginning of the lens name), then yes you need an adapter that costs $99. However, they have a great starting lineup of RF lenses (where you don't need an adaptor) and they're always making more (just announcement three more yesterday).

14:28 continuous AF means your camera is ALWAYS trying to acquire focus (even when it’s pointed at the ceiling or the floor) and will drain your battery.

@VanessaJoy 2 года назад

Yes it will, but if you’re a wedding Photographer you know that you never stop shooting and focusing, all day long. So there’s barely a battery difference at all and it’s worth having your camera be prepared without “waking up the focus”
