EOS R6 Mark II - Trouble with getting clear photos

Hello, i am a beginner photographer and I'm having some trouble. I saw that someone else was having the same issues as i am but with a different camera body. So i am shooting in M and i have my back button focus set but when i take photos they look grainy almost. Like they are clear but its not super clean and crisp like others. I heard that you need to have the ISO down to the lowest setting because the higher it is the more grainer the photo will be. I could really use help on improvement and what to fix!! I shoot with the 50 mm lens F 1.8 and the RF 25 -105 mm F/4L IS USM as well.

Do a total reset of the camera settings. The set the mode to P. Set the lens to AF. Take pictures of stationary subjects at lots of distances.

First and foremost, Back Button Focus, BBF, does not improve the camera’s ability to focus.  It can improve your ability to select and acquire a subject, but that’s it.  The same AF system is used with or without BBF.

If your photos are grainy, then could you post a sample image of the issue?  Thanks.  A sample will help us better understand your issue.  Please post an image that includes EXIF data.  Even better, share a RAW photo to a public  file sharing platform like Dropbox.

Agree Simplicity is a virtue. Complication is complication if you are not grounded in the use of something.

Deep down, most photographers are trying to freeze time for people who don't realize how fast life is moving. Please ask for an invite to my Knowledge Base articles for tips on teaching photography, composition, and non-compensated product reviews.
