My fiance and I bought a new R6 partially for the flippy screen so we can take selfies together. It's easiest to hold the camera by the lens when taking a selfie but then you can't click the shutter button. I like the 2 second timer option, but it 1)focuses 2)counts down 3) shoots. The order needs to be 1) count down 2)focus 3)shoot. See video link below for visual description:

If Canon's reading this, can you please come up with a solution?

Jon,
The interval timer does not address my issue is far too impractical for my usage
Thanks for the workaround tho
So question to the group...
Is this forum just for users?
Is those canon provide support through this forum?
I might be barking up the wrong tree here
Yes, this is a user supported forum, moderated by Canon.
For specific Canon support you should call 1-800-OK-CANON.

Mr. Waddizle VIP obviously doesn't know about “continues autofocus” on photo mode, lol
The camera absolutely focus on its own if you turn this on
Obviously you do not read User Guide of forum threads.
The OP has complained that continuous AF does not work when you use the shutter delay time.
