The Top 8 (HIDDEN) Tips for the CANON R5C

This was great for me because I’m buying an R5C this week. Maybe even tomorrow. Thanks so much. I’ll be back for more.

Can also confirm the face priority vs face only also works with other objects not just faces so you can remove a product and replace it without it racking focus

Awesome! Thank you!

How did you get that + in the middle of display screen ?

If you're not shooting in raw isn't the base ISO400? For the lower end anyways.

Your content is amazing! I really appreciate this video. Keep up the great work

Really helpful tips here, thank you! It’s been a bit of a headache to get round the menus, used to the R5’s photo style menus.

Thanks for this video. Very helpful. What 99 watt battery are you using?

OMG This helped me so much! It was so frustrating not being able to track/select target with AF like I could do in photo mode. Thanks so much!!!

Other than your face, I can't really see much of the gear. It's the same dark lighting in every video. I am not sure if you are thinking it is cool looking and cinematic, but we care less. We want to see products clearly and in decent lighting. You should change your lighting settings in your studio.

Man, I love your optimism and how you have found your way around all these 'issues'. I think the only thing missing is the built-in ND filter. With Canon allowing 3rd party glass with auto focus, this camera is going to become a 'hot' favourite albeit with the fan inside:)

Love your videos! Learning a ton about my new R5C.

Thanks for great tips, no fluff. I learn something every time I click your videos. - Mike

Congratulations on the content! really understanding! which external battery are you using and which power cable thank you very much

Great video. I have a request. Can you do a video tutorial how to assign custom button on R5C. For example I want to assign C1 8K 30P, C2-4k 120P C3-4K 60P. I want to get familiar with because I will be buying the R5C soon. I am a GH5 shooter with a large collection of Canon L glass. I am still using the old 5D mark III for photo. I am interested in the R5C with V-mount battery and cage.

Great great vid and tips. 4,5,6 were new! Thank u!I would love to better understand what a dual base iso does … maybe you’ll do video? Just doesn’t compute fully despite past research.

Great tips.

A different method to just selecting the native or base iso 800 or 3200 is to use the dual base iso on the R5 c simultaneously. When shooting in clog 3 you can choose base iso 3200 (can be selected under camera icon menu #2) and simultaneously run the regular iso selection at 800 - both iso selections appear on the LCD display. The benefit of this method is that middle grey exposure stays the same as shooting at regular base iso 800 but you get 2 more clean stops in the shadows - but at the expense of losing 2 stops of DR in the highlights. So it doesn't increase dynamic range but shifts the range sensitivity to prioritise lower light. Can be very useful for retaining shadow detail if required and be set up to select via one of the buttons for quick access. The R5 c is currently the only Canon camera that has this feature. The R5 has 2 native (or base) ISOs but you can't run them simultaneously.

Great idea with the media button to save power. Also appreciate the additional tips on what you've figured out with auto-focus. Thanks my man!

Incredible! Did not know some of those auto focus tricks! I got the r5c in January and have been loving it ever since !

Thank You :) Great video.

Thanks for sharing. You always bring up clever informations. Cheers. Didi

Really great collection! 👍

Great video. Fun fact about the super35 6K RAW...if used with the .71 speed booster and EF glass, it becomes full frame 6K RAW.

I love these R5C tips videos you do! Keep em coming brother!

Chris & Jordan from DPReview TV should've watched your videos before putting out their dumb reviews of this camera :-)

Thank you, Bryan! Your posts about R5c are so helpful and a must for me. I hope Canon will release a new firmware update to improve the camera (latest is from nov 2022). My no 1 wish is video in Photo Mode, good old R5 video style for simple life ...

Keep these videos coming bro.. I done into mine and found all of these before, so glad you’re spreading the word. Besides the battery life, this is the absolute perfect camera!!!

Awesome! I had no idea about the Tilt + Roll feature, I've been using a leveler app on my phone lol. Much appreciated
