EOS R10 Focus bracketing/stacking in M mode

[Mike79]

Hi!

I understand that with the R10, focus stacking and bracketing is only available using Autofocus, but can my camera be in (M) manual mode otherwise?

Many thanks in advance!

[Mike79]

Clever, thanks!

I was finally able to see the FIR file listed among Explorer downloads - when I click on it, my only options are Open, Cut, Copy, Delete and Properties.

There is no "Send to" for me to send it to the SD card, and it won't "Open".

I clicked on "Copy" (I don't know where it copies to) figuring that I can get it to copy to the SD card -     eventually.......

So I'm still stuck. Stuck sucks.

Just popping in with a suggestion!

Are you able to open your downloads folder and in a separate explorer window open the SD card's storage? If yes, you might be able to click and drag the file from your downloads directly to the root folder for the SD card! 

Hope this helps!

You need to copy the file - you did that already above

then open the SD drive in explorer and select the root folder then right click and select paste to paste the copied file

As instructed, inserted SD card into card reader, found it as EOS_Digital (E:)

Under that is:

        DCIM

           100 CANON

             CANONMSC

MISC

How to access the Root Folder from all of that, please.

Thanks for caring!

Many thanks for popping in - 

I inserted the card into a reader, found it at Explorer as follows:

EOS_Digital (E:)

DCIM

 100 CANON

 CanonMSC

MISC

So - please advise how to access the "Root folder", into which I should try to send the latest firmware update, which is supposedly a  zip file.

Many thanks!

First, the ZIP file is a container that has a PDF with install instructions AND the firmware for your camera. Windows treats it like a folder once you click it.

Start by double clicking the eosr10-v150-win.zip file. It should open and show the files (see attached).

Right click the R1015000.FIR and select "Copy" (see attached). 

Insert your card in the reader and you should see the card. It will already be in the "Root" and show folders (see attached). Just use your pick button or tap into an open area, which will be the Root, just to insure that you are indeed in the root and not one of the folders. Now just "Right click" and select "Paste".

After the transfer, you should see this.

This fellow (south) Floridian (computer non-techy, obviously) has followed your clear/complete/explicit instructions to the extent of MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!

MANY thanks for the time and effort you put into this, just for li'l ol' me!

[Mike79]

Many thanks.

I just needed a little more "show and tell" to get me going.

Firmware is updated!    Whoopee!!

You are welcome, Mike.
