Hi all, Can anyone tell me the best focus setting to capture birds in flight? I know that AF Servo should be used but what about the focus area settings? And what meter setting do you use? Right now I am concerned about shooting hawks, eagles and vu...
I downloaded the new EOS utility and the 1.3 firmware. When I use Canon Conn etc on my Mac to connect via wi-fi, the connection seems solid. I get to browse for and select firmware 1.3 to install over 1.2 But every time I get the message that the fir...
HiMy R5 keeps changing settings randomly as it goes through the menu on its own all while I am using it. You can see it jumping and changing settings especially the focus where it moves from the centre to the bottom on its own. I try to move it ba...
There haven't many clear nights this summer so far, but finally I had a chance to do some decent star-field shots to evaluate the quality of the RF 70-200mm for basic astro. First off I'm using a fairly basic AZ-GTi alt-az tracker and the exposures a...
The rubber port covers/dust covers on the side of the Canon R5 and R5 C, usually these can be removed just by pulling the little tether out of the hole and can be reinstalled by pushing it back in. Before I risk breaking the cover and being without i...
My brand new EOS r6mii camera keeps randomly showing error 80 while I'm shooting. Powering the camera off and turning it back on, and also taking out the battery and re-installing it temporarily solves the problem, but it will randomly pop up again a...
I’m trying to determine if anyone else has run into this or found a fix. I use a Sigma 120-300mm f/2.8 DG OS HSM (EF mount) — works beautifully on both my Canon R6 bodies and on my M50 (using EF to RF or EF to M adapters).However, when I mount the le...
Hello all! I purchased a canon EOS R 50 in May of this year. I use the camera for pro wrestling photographs. The camera fired off an error code, lens 01. I took a soft cloth and cleaned the lens, and I am no longer receiving this error. But, now the ...
I'm old school and shoot thru the viewfinder on my R7 so I don't have the screen open. However after a few shots the countdown timer turn itself on without me doing anything. How do I get it to stop this annoying behaviour?
Hello! My last two sessions using my 35mm on my R6 have started overexposing some of my images even when my settings have stayed the same. I put my 24-70 on and it did not do that so I am guessing it is the lens? I also got an error a couple of times...
I’m experiencing the autofocus issue that many seem to also be experiencing. In researching the problem, I’ve seen 2 or 3 responses from Canon, saying to send the camera to them for repair. To those of you that have done this, did Canon find and fix ...
Is there a way to use both a lapel microphone and a shotgun microphone through a splitter and end up with dual audio channels with this camera?Thanks
Has anyone made Pre-Continous shooting work with a wireless remote? (Conon or Trird Party)
I bought a brand new Canon R6 Mark II after my other Canon R6 starting showing error codes. I used the new mark II at a wedding this past weekend and then at an engagement session yesterday. No issues during the wedding, but during my engagement sess...
This may be a stupid question; however, I can't seem to format my SD card. I've tried both a 32GB SD card and a 128GB card and the message for both are "Can not Format, Change Card". Both of the SD cards were purchased recently at my local Walmart.
