Save/Load Settings for R6

is there a way to safe/load settings for the R6 body? I know the R5 has it, but it doesn’t appear that the R6 does. If it doesn’t, is there a work around? Thanks

Hi and welcome

I take it you mean to save your configuration to an SD card as a backup. No, there is not such feature for the R6 (wish there was...) but, at a pinch, you could load your default config settings to one of the C1-C3 modes as a backup, if you are not using them already. They should stay if you do a reset.

That's a bummer. I am former 18 year Nikon photog that switched to Canon. I find that SOME R series bodies have this feature, but eh R6 does not. I shoot with two identical bodies and I like to save settings to SD card not just for backup, but to configure the second body identical to the first. Such a time saver and reduces human error.

Anyone knw if there is a feature request option?
