Thanks Tommy, i love my R6. Had it for six months now and love mirrorless.
Love this idea... being able to swap to face detect with the back button could be the answer to my less than perfect focus at weddings. Thanks Tommy.
Thanks for the no nonsense straight talk. A brief history lesson on my camera journey. I have only shot one wedding. It was 5-7 years ago by accident. A coworker's daughter was getting married and her photographer cancelled last minute with some lame excuse. She begged me just to come to the Church for a few pictures. Long story short, I pulled it off with my Canon 5DmkIV with the exception of the Bride and Groom walking down the isle. I choked on focus, shutter speed and lighting in that brief, Very Important moment. Now I have the R6 mkII. I just upgraded from The R6 which I gave to my son. I love both of these Cameras. Looking back now, I could have crushed that Wedding with either the R6 or R6mkII Hind sight is 20/20 LOL I appreciate your tips from this video I hope you have been able to add the R6 or R6mkII to your arsenal. I shot a Baby Shower a few weeks ago and the colors and results were stunning. I give all the credit to The R6 mkII
Hi Tommy, thank you for the video, not only are you a FANTASTIC photographer but you are a BRILLIANT teacher of photography too, thank you, Pete 👍📷
It is amazing how we can pick up small suggestion like this to be for us huge save in time. Shooting live event is stressful, there for such a suggestion is awesome for all of us... Big thank you...
Thank you! I just purchased the R6 (the first one)
nice and simple for the AF as I picked up 2 R5.s this week
Thank you! So helpful!
Brilliant stuff, Thanks, this camera is so different to the 5D MK4!!
similar to ishangarwalphotography, I am coming from a 60D to my 1st mirrorless, an R6 MkII + adapter to run my EF lens
Tommy, your explanation is fast, clear and Thank You for dumbing it down for me to understand.
This is brilliant Tommy. Owe you one on your next trip to India :). Thank you.
Great video Tommy I actually asked you about the eye autofocus and servo at the photography show
Thanks for videos, they are amazing !! I have set back button to eye detection but main capture button is in servo made instead of one shot when half pressed ? please help. Bob
Thanks 😊 so much 😁
Tommy it’s been so long I am missing your travel videos first India then Iceland. Please upload soon. And Congratulations ❤ wish you Happy Married life. 🎊 🎉❤
I recomand MPB i recently trade with then a 5d mark III for a r6
If you want to engage single point AF, do you just use the shutter button on the top of the camera ?
useful content.
With the change to the back button I don’t need to keep my finger on the shutter button. I can just hit the shutter all the way down
One question, so you don't use SERVO? Is that different from single point AF? Lastly, when you take pics with couples moving towards you, you put your focus on the eye first, then keep pressing back button focus as they walking or moving?? I am confused 🥴
Just got the R5. Family portrait outdoor photographer. Any suggestions for focusing large groups as far as settings? Thank you!
Did you find the solution
I am coming from 60D 5Dmarkiii yesterday got my First mirrorless R5C RF 15-35 L with rest of my ef lenses my it was really annoying with my EF 50mm 1.8 continiously making focusing sound i will try this is my 50mm a waste? I have ef 70-200,70-300,24-70,24-105,100,12-24
We have the same settings! What brand of strap are you using?
Thank you Quentin. I’m using one by small rig - only £10
What if I wanted to Focus on Object with the people behind? How will you execute focus this kind of scenario?
Just use single point focus for anything that isn’t a face :)
@@TommyReynolds89 any issues you have using single point? Like out of focus while recompose
@@Thundr4x thanks to mirrorless, “focus then recompose” is no longer a thing. Now you can compose and then focus, thanks to the 100s of focus points. Wherever you compose they’ll sure be a focus point you can use without needing to recompose
@@TommyReynolds89 in this case, you use the joystick to move the single point AF? Does is not feel like it takes time to do this?
@@Thundr4x I use the shutter wheel to move the focus point left or right, and the aperture wheel to move the point up or down. Doing both actions simultaneously means I can reach my desired focus point in a second :)
I don’t like holding back button while pressing the shutter button. If you assign back focus to eye detect and not change shutter customization, you should be good.
