This avoids it skipping merrily past the AF point you want to select for example, causing you to miss a shot. This is already a very welcome control feature of these cameras, so make it work for you even more by changing the speed at which it scrolls through parameters. Adjust the sensitivity of the joystick on the back of your EOS R5 or R6.

Here's one we admit we'd probably have overlooked if Dave hadn't pointed it out (yes we need to read our camera manuals a bit more thoroughly) and it's something which could really make a speed difference.

For even greater flexibility create your own in Canon's free Picture Style Editor. David highlights some of the more recent ones, including the "Fine Detail" Style, which adds a little extra sharpness and bite to a shot. Just like film photographers used to choose a film based on the look and feel they wanted to add to a scene, Canon Picture Styles can tailor the colour balance and tonality of a shot. Parry advises this for weddings as an example. Alternatively use the Kelvin adjustments to set a specific colour temperature value.ĭavid also draws attention to a wonderful feature called AWB White Priority, which automatically neutralizes strong colour casts but retains a little ambient warmth. You can do this with a simple piece of white paper, and immediately create a bespoke colour theme for your shooting environment.

"If you shoot interiors, where it's very bright outside the window and dark inside then you should stick to RAW, but CRAWs offer up to a 50% reduction in file size, meaning where you can only shoot 250 full size RAWs you can shoot over 1000 CRAWs." 10: Create a custom WBĪlthough White Balance (WB) is nothing new, Dave highlights the power of taking a custom WB reading for complex lighting. "If you only shoot exposures that you might need to adjust by only a stop (1EV) either side, then CRAW is offers big file size savings" says David. While it might sound like the name of a comic book villain when you say is as "Craw", C-RAW is a fantastic file format that has been around for a little while, but is underused by pros. Parry suggests that we should turn off auto rotate for in-camera review, as this prevents unwanted rotation of the image as you move the camera, but to choose the option on the EOS R5 and R6 for portrait orientation images to be automatically rotated on your computer. If you've shot a portrait, with the focus point on the subject's eyes, then this will automatically zoom the shot to that area, so you can check critical focus on the fly. Select the option for your camera to magnify your image from the point of focus, at the review stage. However he also advises that we turn this off on fast paced shoots as it can really slow you down. "A great feature of mirrorless cameras is the ability to review images in the electronic viewfinder" says Parry. If you're out all day on a shoot this can really add up to a battery saving. If you are a sports or wildlife shooter than leave this set to a high value, but if you shoot mainly landscapes this is an unnecessary drain on battery life. The EOS R5 and R6 have spectacular electronic viewfinders (EVFs) and a neat feature is the ability to adjust the refresh rate. Do it now! 5: Adjust viewfinder performance This will prevent us from accidentally heading out on a shoot without a card in the camera and shooting all of our work into digital oblivion. Parry passionately encourages us to all turn off the shutter release without card function on out EOS cameras, once we're done experimenting with it straight out of the box. We've been stung with this before and it's never pretty. Trusted magazines will never pass your work to others, but social sites often strip exif data from images when you upload, so make sure you have a copy of all files which are clearly labelled as your own! 4: Turn off shutter release without card This gets embedded in the exif data of your images and so, as you send out your images to magazines and (more critically) to online photo sharing sites, you always have proof the original work is yours. Always set the copyright info of your files.

If you're not a professional photographer or videographer you might think this doesn't apply to you, but as experts in the field of publishing we can attest that David's advice here is spot on. Yes we know you just want to get your camera out of the box and start shooting, we do too, but as Dave points out, if you intend to organise your files in Lightroom or Digital Photo Professional (DPP) you're going to want this information stored within your images.
Setting the date and timezone of your camera, before you start shooting, is essential for archiving purposes. (Image credit: Future) 2: Always set the Date and TimeĪgain this one which we all probably know about, but one which we can get a little lazy about (we're certainly guilty of this!).
