Thanks, Tony. I'm a full-time commercial photographer and I've been using the R6 for about 6 months now. I thought I knew the camera pretty well, but this taught me a thing or two. You guys are awesome.
You know, I gotta say, you always come through with the best videos that we all can understand and get the most from. I recently bought the Canon R6 and looked at several tutorials... which would leave a lot out, go too fast, and/or confuse me. But you really DO Rock. Why did I bother to look at anyone else's tutorial.
Tony, I've been following you for my whole photography carreer. Watched all the tutorials and also the one for my older camera 6D MII. Now i'm taking a leap to a new camera, R6 and i'm so excited that again you are the one that can teach me the little big things about this camera. THANK YOU for being here cause you've made me learn photography the fun and fast way!
Yes, please do. In the R6 II videos I've seen the author said what some of the settings should be but didn't explain WHY a certain setting was selected. You go into MUCH more detail.
Adding to this. The various AF modes have been driving me crazy. I'm coming from a 5D3, and it's been painful so far experimenting in the field. Lots of out of focus shots, and the camera is not locking onto the eye and tracking it.
What an excellent walk through tutorial! As a new owner of an R6, I may have spent the rest of my life figuring all of these features out. Thank you, thank you... also not sure if anyone has ever said this to you but you are a true doppelganger for Fred Armisen looks and tone of voice (it s a compliment). Really enjoy learning from you. New subscriber for sure. Thanks.
I just like to say that your video is excellent. Your explanation of the different screens and menu options are really well done clear concise and simple. As a professional photographer have to say that I greatly appreciated this video. Thank you.
It was a lot but it was worth it Tony, thanks a lot for this video. I love the pace of your tutorials. Like most of us (I think anyway :) I am impatient and don't want to sit through unnecessary blah blah. Your explanations and recommendations are to the point, quick, and helpful. Thanks again!
I’m so happy I found your page. It helped me a lot. I had changed setting without understanding and my camera wasn’t taking pictures correctly. My camera is ready to take pictures of my kids cheer competition. Thank you. thank you. thank you. I absolutely subscribed for future lessons.
Just subscribed. Thank you so much for these tutorials you do. I also passed my Part 107 exam through one of your videos. You are always spot on. God bless you.
As always, another great tutorial! Very informative and helpful, I've followed you guys for some time now and always love your videos. Should have me R6 in the next couple of weeks will be revisit this video to review all the great tips and guidance again. Great work
Tony, thank you so much for your tutorial on focusing and switching from a single point focusing to eye detect. I really needed that tutorial and I am very grateful for your clear explanation.
I'm a newbie at photography and will mostly take photos for personal use. This video was very helpful to configure my new Canon R6. I set the back button focus, so that will be different for me since I'm used to using the AF feature on cameras. Purchased your Stunning Photography book and Flash training to help me take great photos. Thank you Tony!!
Hi Tony, I've just picked up my R6 (switched from a 5dIV) - fantastic video, very informative as always. Looking forward to getting out this morning and putting some of these tips into action - I shoot wildlife so the eye tracking in particular is one I can't wait to try out, hopefully I can adapt to your suggestion of dual BB focus. Thanks for taking the time to put this video together! I'm relatively novice compared to many of the people here and you do a great job of putting a point across in a way that I can understand 👍
I’m only 15 minutes into the video and I an loving it so far. Great detail and great tips. I have already organised a label for reminders to stick behind my screen and I have created a link on my phone for the R6 Manual. Thank you
Thanks so much. Like others I have just bought an R6 and the thought of reading that manual is mind blowing. Great tutorial, I found it very useful. Probably something simple but as yet I haven’t found the shutter release timer, but only had it a few hours.
I am so thankful for this video. My 60D broke yesterday. (yah I am a little behind the times). I ordered the R6. I found the pdf camera manual online and 😨😳 yikes! I have so much to learn. Your video is so much easier to understand and veryhelpful. I will likely have to watch it over and over to get it all down. I especially appreciate all the little settings and details. I would be one of those people thinking my camera was broken when I just pressed the lock button or something haha. Thanks so much. I haven't found anything so straight forward and detailed. Lots of info! I may have to slow down the playback speed. I thought I was in fast forward there for a while- I kept pausing and rewinding. Ahahaha. Keep up the great videos! Can't wait to buy your books and videos soon. Just discovered you guys a few weeks ago when searching for off camera flash tutorials.
Many thanks for this Tony, very helpful. Just updated/upgraded to R6 MkII from a 5D MkII and a bit of a change. Loving the journey so far. Lionel in the UK 🙂
I have learned a ton in the 1hr and realized how much I didn't know about this camera. One addition I learned while I was walking through your suggested settings - I turned on the display focus chart regardless of auto focus or not and wow mind blown, I push the auto focus button, then I can manually change it with the lens dial and there are red highlights that appear around the layer that I am manually focusing towards... I was doing this to focus on the outside through blinds and window and I could auto focus on the blinds, then manually focus to outside and it looks excellent.
I have been a Panasonic user since before the GH1. Owned video cameras before that and moved to each new GH camera up to the GH4. Months ago I bought a Canon M6 mk2 to have higher resolution stills and experiment with DPAF for 4K video. Loved the camera but it had its limits for video. Finally just bit the bullet and bought a R6. This is what we always wanted the GH successor to be. Such an amazing camera. Now I’m here learning more about this new sexy beast. Subscribed after years of just watching.
Thank you so very much, dear, sir! Very good information and most useful! Wishing you and your whole family all the very best, and stay blessed, safe, and healthy! Best regards from Sweden!
Wow! I just got the Canon R6, 2 days ago as a birthday present and i JUST finished watching this incredible tutorial! I can’t thank you enough for putting this together. After watching this entire video I feel more confident and I actually feel that I know a lot more about my camera and the endless settings it has. I even did your custom buttton configuration for eye AF, and I think i will get used to that very quickly. Again, thanks for sharing all the knowledge!! I suscribed to the channel, I will keep an eye on your videos. Thanks. :)
GREAT VIDEO. I tried your power saving methods and my battery lasted as long as my old one did on my 7D. A couple settings I didn't like for taking photos of downhill mountain bikers and I'm going to go back to I think Display Performance of Smooth and Eco Mode Off and see how the battery life goes. If it dies too quick, I'll go back to your recommendations - they definitely work GREAT! Thanks!
this is the best in shorten tutorial (not too long, not too short)about canon R6, and with the reading of the camera user manual (better sooner than later) it s ready to go, canon r6 unleashed :). will take a look at your other videos. thanks for this one :)
Thank you Tony, I have your stunning digital Photography book and will get the video one next. I am an amateur and loved your video as I just purchased the R6. I could not set the time-lapse video as you suggested in the video, I had to go back to Wrench 1 and change the record func+card/folder setting to enable the time-lapse . It now only records to 1 card
You are very knowledgeable and I just ordered my canon r6 and excited. As a beginner and taking an online course you greatly explain everything and with all that I just ordered you photography book. My name is George thanks again and great videos
This is an excellent tutorial. I have owned Canon cameras for several years so I didn't need to start from the ground up. This tutorial was perfect for getting me up to speed on the capabilities of the R6. Thank you!!!
Hey Tony, thanks for this. I am thinking of upgrading from the R to the R6. I am finding my R misses so many shots when there is a busy background. I am wondering if the R6 will hit more than the R. I’ve even found my much older rebel t7i seemed to have better focusing
Hi Tony! A big thank you for this video. Just bought my R6 and was watching it. It is really a great help. Just ordered "How to Create Stunning Digital Photography" at Amazon as a thank you and because I am sure, it will support me. All the best from Austria!
This training came at such a perfect timing. I just bought an R6. Better to watch this video than having to read the entire manual, specially since I'm new to the Canon ecosystem. THANK YOU :)
@@MichaelCTruth To be honest, I have held both cameras in my hand at the store and didn't notice the difference..maybe because I wasn't particularly looking for that "plastic feeling"..hope this answer your question :)
Excellent tutorial. The details for IS(Image Stabilizer) mode; the options depicted will only be available if you are using a lens without image stabilizer. Even turning off lens image stabilizer doesn't get you those options.
I appreciated that your tutorial indicates the tab and line number of each of the topics you discussed as well as your tip to put a sticky on the camera back noting how/where to find certain key info. This leads me to the following suggestion. With the expectation that I will be an R6 owner, I downloaded the massive advanced user manual this weekend. YIKES, It's nearly 900 pages! Since a tutorial is a wonderful tool for anyone new to the subject at hand, I think it would be helpful to everyone if your future tutorials would cite the page number or section of the user manual where the specific info you are discussing can be found, as well as the date of the manual version you are citing In perusing the downloaded pdf, I felt like an elementary grade child using a college level text book trying to solve a homework problem. Very sad.
Tony, Your how to create stunning photography is my go to book. I just got a Canon R6 and I’m wondering if you are going to write a book just for that camera?
Thanks for this exhaustive instructional. It is very helpful to me while I get accustomed to a new R6. If you use C1 for Wildlife set up for manual mode with auto iso etc. But, while using C1 you decide for whatever reason that you want to change to aperture mode for a few shots. Can it be done? How?
Tony the setup video for the Canon R6 is fantastic but I also now own the new Sony a7iv. Do you plan to make a complete video for this camera in the near future?
Tony thanks for the video, I actually purchased my R6 from KEH using credit for trading in some older equipment. I was able to use the codes on both sides of the purchase plus get extra credit from KEH for trading towards the R6. I actually ended up with extra funds that they gave me more credit for putting the extra on a KEH gift card. I used that plus the code to purchase a RF 85Mm F2 Micro from them after watching used lenses for a few months on their site. Thanks guys.
This was a great video. Very detailed, very granular. (I love that). I have one question. I just purchased the R6 Mark II. Are there any important difference that I need to be aware of? Will you be doing a refresh of this video for the Mark II? - As always thanks for your help.
A couple points that were not touched in the tutorial: 1. A remote is not even necessary anymore. Remote Live View shooting in the Camera Connect app works so well and lets you see composition, adjust settings and move the focus point 2. Electronic 1st. Curtain can introduce "half bokeh" when the shutter speed is very fast (
This is excellent. Here is what I still wonder. On my R6m2, I "took away" the focus part of the shutter function as suggested, and now it belongs to the AF and/or "*" buttons. But I kind of miss it. I wonder if there is any downside to putting the focus back into the shutter button. IOW, will it adversely affect this set-up?
Thanks, Tony. I'm a full-time commercial photographer and I've been using the R6 for about 6 months now. I thought I knew the camera pretty well, but this taught me a thing or two. You guys are awesome.
Tony, your videos are so useful! Thanks for all the hard work you and Chelsea put into them. Your work as a photography educator is excellent!
You know, I gotta say, you always come through with the best videos that we all can understand and get the most from. I recently bought the Canon R6 and looked at several tutorials... which would leave a lot out, go too fast, and/or confuse me. But you really DO Rock.

Love this video Tony. I've bought all your books and quote you often as I'm working on getting better everyday. All my best!
Thanks Tony. Just moved from T6i to R6 and this video was so helpful to get me up and going fast. I really like the R6.
Thanks Tony! Please make one for R6 ii.
I agree. A setup guide for R6 Mark II would be very helpful.
Yes, please do. In the R6 II videos I've seen the author said what some of the settings should be but didn't explain WHY a certain setting was selected. You go into MUCH more detail.
Adding to this. The various AF modes have been driving me crazy. I'm coming from a 5D3, and it's been painful so far experimenting in the field. Lots of out of focus shots, and the camera is not locking onto the eye and tracking it.
Just got my R6 last week and I've barely had time to check it all out. This video is awesome. Thanks Tony!
Tony you have no idea how much you just SWITCHED up my work flow . Thank you so much bro
You are always my #1 choice for camera information and training. Thanks for years of valuable knowledge!
Thank you Tony! I retired from the service and have just started my photography journey. Thank you for all your work!
Awesome video, Tony! My R6 is arriving tomorrow and this tutorial has me even more excited!
Keep up the great work!
What an excellent walk through tutorial! As a new owner of an R6, I may have spent the rest of my life figuring all of these features out.

I'm upgrading tomorrow from a 5d mark iii . Cannot wait now. Great video
This was a great tutorial. I feel very confident in transitioning to the Canon R6 from the Canon 5D Mark iii. Thank you Tony!
For this well done Benhur kinda long video you deserve the like. Thanks Tony for cover and explain the most important features in R6.
I’m so happy I found your page. It helped me a lot. I had changed setting without understanding and my camera wasn’t taking pictures correctly. My camera is ready to take pictures of my kids cheer competition. Thank you. thank you. thank you. I absolutely subscribed for future lessons.

This is so helpful. I just got my R6 a little while ago and this tutorial is so helpful. Will need to watch it a couple of times.
Thanks Tony! I’ve been waiting for this for some time now! I had to use the R5 tutorial to get my settings down !
I have been waiting for your R6 Tutorial. I bought the camera and kit lens, plus the 800 f/11. Thank you Tony.
Hope you enjoy it!
This is my second R6 tutorial… I wish it was my first. Everything I needed was here. Thank you! Love your books, BTW. 👊🏾🧔🏾
I’m only 15 minutes into the video and I an loving it so far. Great detail and great tips. I have already organised a label for reminders to stick behind my screen and I have created a link on my phone for the R6 Manual. Thank you
Superb stuff. You're a natural and gifted teacher. Thanks for this.

Tony, that was an awesome video! So much information and all important. This stuff is hard to make and really needs experience so I appreciate it.
Glad it was helpful!
@tony you and your wife are amazing. Your book changed my life and got me into photography.
Thanks, Edgar, that means so much!

@@Wandy1D I just bought one and don't think it feels or looks like plastic.
Thank you, another great video.
Great video. I have the R6 and it's the best I have had outstanding performance!!!!!
thank you for this video and its very helpful
Just replaced my 7D with the R6 and thank you for an excellent video tutorial!.
Excellent tutorial. The details for IS(Image Stabilizer) mode; the options depicted will only be available if you are using a lens without image stabilizer. Even turning off lens image stabilizer doesn't get you those options.

bro fantastic job always enjoy ya'll videos
Thank you for your hard work... i have innovative ideas for my work from this video... thank you, T,
Terrific video and tutorial, thank you.
Very informative video! Any idea when a crop sensor body (shall we say a replacement for the 7D Mark II) might come out?
Excellent walk-thru! Thanks
Excellent tutorial.
Very well no nonsense guide.
Thanks for this. I appreciate your time and effort.
Thanks for the video tutorial.
Great tutorial!!!
I appreciated that your tutorial indicates the tab and line number of each of the topics you discussed as well as your tip to put a sticky on the camera back noting how/where to find certain key info.

Epic job, much appreciated, thanks.
This was a great video. Very detailed, very granular. (I love that). I have one question. I just purchased the R6 Mark II. Are there any important difference that I need to be aware of? Will you be doing a refresh of this video for the Mark II? - As always thanks for your help.
Great info!! Brought me up to speed...
A couple points that were not touched in the tutorial:
1. A remote is not even necessary anymore. Remote Live View shooting in the Camera Connect app works so well and lets you see composition, adjust settings and move the focus point
2. Electronic 1st. Curtain can introduce "half bokeh" when the shutter speed is very fast (
Great video, thank you!
Nice to explain
This is excellent. Here is what I still wonder. On my R6m2, I "took away" the focus part of the shutter function as suggested, and now it belongs to the AF and/or "*" buttons. But I kind of miss it. I wonder if there is any downside to putting the focus back into the shutter button. IOW, will it adversely affect this set-up?
