My question is if there is a way to configure the camera (change its settings) and then save the settings other than via the menu system on the camera itself? I hoped that the EOS Utility could do it but I don't see a way to set the settings. Perha...

The title basically is the question. I am shooting macro photography and I need to take a series of images and stack them. The way this is done in the field (I'm told) is to press the shutter and as the camera clicks off the frames, slowly move for...

I’m trying to understand the three choices Canon gives me for the “Initial Servo AF pt for face detect”. This is the top menu item on the AF5 menu. I have played with the different options and I can’t figure out why Canon has given me these option...

Suppose I am in Program mode according to the Mode that I select via the top Mode button. I set, just as an example, image quality to RAW (only). I then clear the settings in C3 via the menu and then switch to Mode C3 via the Mode button. I notice...

Off topic slightly but what would be a very nice solution is to get the phone app to know about the settings and let it save named groups of settings.

Excellent post. I finished it and have moved on to a post that was linked to it about your settings. I’ve had the R5 almost since it first came out but I’m still exploring all of its versatility and I like hearing how other people solve what progra...

I see now that the title of the chapter in the manual is “Custom Shooting Mode (C1-C3)”. I had always thought of it as “Custom Shooting Settings”. BUT… in the table of contents, under the section for “Shooting Mode”, C1- C3 are not listed. Anyhow…...

In fact the only element you can't change is the mode itself eg from M to Tv That answers my question. No, I can not change just the mode itself. That, to me, is just whacko. Lets say I want C3 for wildlife and usually prefer manual mode for wildl...
