So I just got my R6 and I figured this would have been an easy thing to change, seeing as the option is greyed out in the settings. How can we get the attention of canon to change the R6 so that I can use the C-modes as custom video profiles? This is a very annoying thing to have to deal with coming from the EOS R. to be more specific, I want to be able to set C1 to 4k24, C2 to 4k60, or C3 to 1080p120, but you can only set custom shooting modes. A very frustrating decision by canon

Wild how this is still an issue. Honestly my R6 has become a stay in the house camera for me. Last time I used it for video was at the zoo with my kid and has been mounted since then. I ended up getting the R7 which has these modes but recently I’ve been just considering getting the Sony Alpha C or FX30 for video and selling off my canon. This company is no longer consumer focused unless people get pissed enough to not buy the camera. The R6 doesn’t keep people from buying the one with more capability and if anything it stops them from becoming a customer. No one’s caring about your color science anymore, it’s the value and so far Sony is providing WAY more value for the camera without artificial limitations like customs controls. I even laugh at the thought of telling someone, you can’t use a feature because we believe you don’t want that here. The R7 does it so why not? If anything someone will find a way to hack it eventually. Surprised this has gone for years without resolution.

this is one of the lamest excuse i even seen. seriously is that so difficult. have you ever wonder why people are moving to other brands when it comes to filming. look like canon is falling far behind because of engineers and product designers
