Put camera into "sleep mode"... saves batt (turns off evf/lcd) - extends the batt life to over 800 shots on R6. Change the front 'dof preview' button to 'displays off'. In menu section Orange - sub menu 3 - customize buttons - tab down x5 - change dof preview to displays off. To wake up camera... put eye up to evf - instantaneously turns it back on.
Just got my R6 and this was super useful, thanks! Any chance you've found the setting for making the display and/or viewfinder red rather than white (for shooting in super low light without ruining your night vision)? It was called "Screen Color" on my old 750D but not on this one it seems
Hey Brian glad this video helped you out. There are also free guides available that should speed up the adjustment process. Unfortunately there is no screen color setting. But for best low light performance turning simulated exposure helps. Thanks for the comment!
I'm having an issue with my r6 and I hope you can help me, and that is when trying to switch to another eye or face it keeps going back to the original eye. What am I doing wrong?
Brand new R6 user here! Thanks for this series! One question, regarding the IS settings (3:30), on "IS (Image Stabilizer) mode" menu, I'm only seeing the option for Digital IS (on or off). I don't see the other two you're showing. Any setting that needs to be active to reveal those?
This depends on the lens and photo and video mode. If the option isn’tthere it is because the lens controls all stabilization or the option isn’t available with what you are shooting at the moment being video or photos.
Hi :) Thank you for this video. I see that my menu screen does not have the same number of options as what you are showing in your tutorial. In other words, when I go to AF (purple) I have #1 and #2 as options where you have 5 options. Same with the camera (red) I have 4 options where you have I think 9. At the top of my main screen I have camera / AF / arrow / wifi / wrench. That's it. You have another camera and a star after that. So the question is....why is mine different? I purchased this camera on June 1 2022. Thank you for your time :)
Usually it’s because the lens is EF or doesn’t have stabilized option on the lens so it’s controlled by the menus. Software updates have moved a few things. If it’s not exactly the same it’s usually not an issue.
Hi Daniel. Just watched your video and I wanted to check to make sure my IS is always on for still photos. I have firmware 1.5.2 installed and the only menu option I have is for Digital IS. I do not have a menu option for Still photos ???
I do a lot with strobe lighting, and I can’t figure out for the life of me how to turn off exposure compensation completely; like not at all. Whenever I focus first, the exposure compensation HAS to adjust itself and I can’t turn it off. The lowest it can go is 4 seconds. Any thoughts on this? Canon update?
Hi Tailored Technique! The lens you have on the camera already has IS so the option won’t appear. Wish they would just gray it out but no it just won’t appear unless you have a lens without an IS switch. Thanks for the comment :)
I just upgraded from a t2i to a r6... When pictures are saved to both cards, can you view pictures on both cards from the camera? I only see the first card slot?
Wow, that is a huge jump. You're going to love this camera but I suggest reading the manual's table of contents (at the very least) to make sure you know all of the functions available. This camera is stacked!
@@michaelatherton6055 I’ve been studying up by watching youtube’s... But I still have a few issues: 1) I set up back button focus for the eye detection (AF-on) and spot focus on the (*) but notice nether work on [A] dial settings ... this might be normal but I find it weird. 2) I can set C1, C2, C3 to video settings 3) I set the round button (DOF preview button) on the front of the camera to Switch between VF/screen -On [A] it won’t switch but stays on what ever was on when I turn the dial.... this very annoying
It seems as though your screen may be broken. Might also be the Eye detect for the VF. Might also be that the touch screen has been turned off. You can still nagivate with the Joy stick right?
Why is my R6 has no copyright information on the file name to set up? On IS mode, it has no still photos to set up always. Did i buy a fake R6 from BestBuy?
Hey Rose. I would say it’s unlikely you have a fake R6. The way the ibis works is if you have an IS lens the switch in the lens controls the IBIS. As far as copy right information make sure you are in photography setting manual. I think that should do the trick.
@@DanielWhiteWithCanon Do you have a video with the video problem that after a few seconds the movie recordings tops? I use a Lexar 128gb V60 1000X. i just shoot in C-log Full HD and no 4K and still is shuts down.
Hey Gabriel. The photos or the screen. If it is the screen you might be able to adjust the screens temperature. It’s under the wrench off the top of my head it’s 3 or 4.
Before I even watch this, I hope you address the fact that 1, you have been taken hostage, or 2, you're just hanging at gram's house for the weekend filming this. LOL
@@DanielWhiteWithCanon Hi there! I use to weddings, and foods you can see my instagram , @ricardocarvalhofotografo ( I`m from Brazil ) Have a nice week man. take care.
Normally when in manual you press info three or four times and you will get there. It might be disabled if you have been messing with the settings as well.
I shot a wedding another day and the battery of R6 only last for 4hours. Is there anyone has the same issue?. Any trick to make it last longer a bit?. My eor R battery can last 6hours.
Touch and drag-NICE FEATURE. Thanks for pointing it out for us.

The IS is controlled by the switch on the lens. If there is not lens stabilization then the option is available on the menus.
what lens did you were using when turned ON IS MENU?
Probably the EF 17-40. The IBIS is typically controlled by the lens stabilization switch so it won’t appear as an option of the lens has IS.
I do a lot with strobe lighting, and I can’t figure out for the life of me how to turn off exposure compensation completely; like not at all. Whenever I focus first, the exposure compensation HAS to adjust itself and I can’t turn it off. The lowest it can go is 4 seconds. Any thoughts on this? Canon update?
Are your shooting in manual and have you check out the flash video for your model I have created?
@@DanielWhiteWithCanon I always shoot in manual, and where can I find your video for the flash you recommended? Thanks Daniel!
when i turned IS mode to enable I didn't have the option to change still photo is to ALWAYS
Hi Tailored Technique! The lens you have on the camera already has IS so the option won’t appear. Wish they would just gray it out but no it just won’t appear unless you have a lens without an IS switch. Thanks for the comment :)
Hi , in my r6 camera, in the is mode showing only video symbol and stabilization. How I can change it as your video. Thank you for your reply
It is only an option with glass that doesn’t have IS. Otherwise the switch turns on both IS and IBIS.
I just upgraded from a t2i to a r6... When pictures are saved to both cards, can you view pictures on both cards from the camera? I only see the first card slot?
You have to change the settings under the wrench 🔧 should be number one. Write settings.

I will open my book and read it finally:) The answer is probably explained in there...
How do you use the touch screen to navigate the menu? My touchscreen just makes the screen turn black briefly but doesn’t detect what it touches!
It seems as though your screen may be broken. Might also be the Eye detect for the VF. Might also be that the touch screen has been turned off. You can still nagivate with the Joy stick right?
The ibis only works like you show when you use a lens without IS. If the lens has IS on you get IBIS. if IS is off the IBIS is off.
Helpful! I didn't find just 1 option in this menu. Thx

You can't do dual recording for video.
That is correct.

why IBIS always on and not only shot? for photography handheld
I’m so sorry I’m not sure what you are asking here.
You Said in the Video „Ibis“ is Always on. But why not „only for shot“ ? If its always on then it is so noisy
@@dkastra26 ibis is controlled by the IS switch on the lens and if is is a none IS lens it I controlled in camera. I believe red camera number 5 tab.
@@DanielWhiteWithCanon yes but you can turn ist on always or only for shot with non is lenses
@@dkastra26 only nine is Lenses have the option in the menus.
My screen gotta a red and green tint outta nowhere. How do I fix this
Hey Gabriel. The photos or the screen. If it is the screen you might be able to adjust the screens temperature. It’s under the wrench off the top of my head it’s 3 or 4.
hmmm.....3:16 Why you have 3 options, but I only have 1 option "Digital IS" On/Off?
If the lens has IS it controls the ibis. If there’s no IS then you have to turn it on manually.
@@DanielWhiteWithCanon eh.. I have RF 15-35, with stabilizer turned ON and on AF
@@patrickwu8415 then the ibis is also turned on.
