EOS R5 - The SETTINGS YOU NEED to KNOW

Рет қаралды 269,846

Күн бұрын

New camera, with LOTS of settings and customization options, but what are the right settings!? Today I wanna show you the settings I found the most useful that have transformed my Canon EOS R5 into a real powerhouse for my bird photography. Normal Animal Eye Detection Autofocus didn't always work perfectly, so I set up a way that lets me switch between normal autofocus and animal eye detection autofocus within an instant. Besides that's there were a few changes that made the camera feel so much better for me.
What changes have you made to your settings? Have I missed any good ones? Please let me know in the comments!

I can't express how much I have found your video helpful to me. I just bought a R6 Canon and it basically has the same menus and settings that you described for the R5. The menu for the AF pink dropdown was the one that I found most helpful. I was having problems locking on the birds eyes with the way I had setup. The fact that you have two buttons to first locate exactly where you wanted to initially focus in and then the second button setup for the bird tracking on the eye really is excellent. Thanks so much for such a great and professional video!

This video is awesome and very helpful. There's nothing worse than trying to set your camera to 8K only to realize it's grayed out because Digital IS is on, and you can't use 8K with Digital IS on. So it's definitely better to set this type of thing up in advance so you can easily get to it with the custom modes.

I leave it completely on eye-detect auto focus servo if I know for sure I am photographing people or animals - and I leave AUTO for the initial point selected option. I then activate the upper right part of the screen so if I want the camera to focus on something else other than the eye or face or head, like somebody’s hands or something they’re holding, I put my finger on the screen in that particular area and move the focus point to where I want and let go and it will begin tracking it. It seems to work pretty darn good. I also have asterisk button to toggle from eye-detect to spot focus, which works well when I just want to take still life shots of objects. I also use back-button focusing all the time.

@jan_wegener 3 жыл бұрын

That's an interesting way to work it. I wondered if that worked. There's really endless ways to set up this camera, but what becomes obvious is that you need to find some sort of arrangement that allows you ti switch between the AF modes. I think it comes down to subject size as well. The eye AF was amazing when I photographed my little daughter. Like it would not jump off the eye and I could easily use auto, but for smaller birds it seemed a little bit more challenged, which makes sense of course. Appreciate the comment, I love hearing about different ways to set it up

@garyleavens8661 2 жыл бұрын

For the Canon EOS R6, these settings have been really helpful, thanks a million! A few things that I struggled with that may help others with the R6 (and perhaps the R5): first, to switch to a custom mode (say C1) you turn the mode dial at the top of the camera to C1; that should have been obvious, but it took me a long time to figure out. (I made a custom mode, C1, for birds, and use C2 for people). Second, I found that the animal eye autofocus really only works when the eye of the bird is possible to see in the viewfinder; if the bird is too far away, the camera may recognize the bird, but won't be able to find its eye; this is probably not a problem with a 600mm lens as you use, but I don't have such a lens. (Still, it's great when it works!) Third, to put the autofocus point back in the center, you need to press the joystick straight in. (Is there a way to put that in the "My Menu"? I don't think so, or at least I couldn't find it.) Finally, it seems that the "My Menu" customization is quite helpful for storing commonly changed settings, but selecting "My Menu" doesn't actually change anything, you still need to select the item and change it, but it is helpful for finding hard-to-find settings that you change frequently.

@jan_wegener 2 жыл бұрын

At the larger distances, the depth of field will be large enough to cover most of the bird, so it's not as critical to find the eye. If it's somewhere near the head it should be good enough

question: if you set up 3 custom modes for video, how do you quickly switch in between them? can you assign a button to switch through modes? ... and do you see which mode you select without taking the eye away from the viewfinder?

@jan_wegener 3 жыл бұрын

I haven't found that yet. I have to press mode and then move the dial. But it is displayed in the viewfinder, so it's pretty easy. Although usually for video I use the screen, so I take my head off anyways, cause I don;t wanna touch the camera, which will introduce vibrations.

Thanks for the video Jan, had the R5 for 3 weeks now and am really loving it. I have taken your advice and gone to back button focusing. I too had that issue with camera getting confused when more than one bird was in frame. I have moved the EYE-AF to the AF point selection button (easier to find for me). This is a whole new way of shooting but I think it will pay off once muscle memory kicks in to new system. Thanks for this invaluable tip...and all the others!

I just got my R5 and I LOVE IT. As you have said at the beginning of your video I was having trouble as to how to set up my camera. This video helped greatly. Thanks for the great information. I subscribed to your channel and am looking forward to watching your other videos.

My camera arrived yesterday and it is now all set up using all of your recommendations. You taught settings I never would have figured out without your video. It is so great to have them all done so I can now use my R5 and have fun. Love it. Thanks again.
