R6 II Is there a way to download the camera settings?

I have an R6 II. I would like to be able to download the settings so I have a documented copy of my standard setup of the camera. Does EOS Utility 3 do this? Anybody know how to do this?

Unfortunately the answer is no...

Only the following cameras have the option to download and restore camera settings.

  • EOS R3
  • EOS R5
  • EOS-1D X / EOS-1D X Mark II / EOS-1D X Mark III
  • EOS-1D Mark III, EOS-1Ds Mark III, EOS-1D Mark IV

But I really hope that Canon see the value of adding save / load the settings to the EOS R6 Mark II like they did with a firmware update for the EOS R5 previously. These cameras have so many customisation options that it is almost impossible to reset a camera and then put them all back as you like easily.

The best option at the moment is to connect the camera to a video capture card and record the steps on the menus each time to make a change, then you have a video to follow.

You can get most of the camera settings using exiftool and a CR3 raw file. But, some will not have the same name as in the camera menus. https://exiftool.org/ (I have a newer version of exiftool on my iMac, but this is the version supplied with Debian stable. Many years ago, I used exiftool on Windows but no longer use Windows.) 

Another program that produces similar results is Exiv2.

 

exiftool -s -G0:2 IMG_9358.CR3 > IMG_9358.CR3.txt

produces output similar to:

That's interesting to see the level of detail that is found, and actually more than I expected. However while this is a good start it's not the whole camera configuration as was originally asked for. Fortunately as you have the EOS R5 then you can save/load the camera settings to a card.

For documenting the settings used to make a photo, I think that exiftool is superior to saving the camera settings.

For a photo I have already made, it is easier to use exiftool than to load saved settings back into the camera and look at them in the camera menus. I do save the settings on my EOS R5 occasionally, but only for ease of getting back to the same settings. If I want to know the camera settings for an image I already made, I use exiftool.

If you have a R6 II, then you could contribute to exiftool. If there is a setting not listed, then make a CR3 file with each of the options selected and take a note of which is which. To eliminate unknown values that increment, do a sequence like Phil Harvey requested for me to use  https://exiftool.org/forum/index.php?topic=12925.msg69898#msg69898 to get exiftool to display shutter mode.

I make exiftool feature requests at: https://exiftool.org/forum/index.php?board=6.0

Sometimes I put raw files or dr4 files or exiftool output on my web server for easy access by Phil Harvey.

Another example of documenting settings as OP requested and not saving all settings to a non-text file. I made this photo in 2019 using an EOS 80D. I can do the same with a CR2 file that I made with my EOS Rebel T1i in 2011, 13 years ago. That makes documentation easy. I have skipped some settings denoted by "...".

Yet another advantage to using exiftool is that it can extract the preview JPEG from a raw file and save to disk. I often see it written that the embedded JPEG in the raw file is the same as the straight out of camera JPG file, but when I subtract one from the other there are differences as the attached example link shows. https://www.rsok.com/~jrm/raw/IMG_9358_CR3_diff.jpeg
