Canon R6 Autofocus Modes Explained

[@JIMPMedia]

This is the best tutorial about autofocus I have seen on KZbin. Most people just tell you how they setup their camera without proper explanations why. Thank you

[@harkpt]

Excellent video that clearly explains the numerous focus options.

[@pernillad9648]

Thank you!!! Your videos are so good! Short, easy and contains all important things. 🙏

[@keithteschner6225]

This is super clarifying. It's amazing how people can explain a lot by saying little. Thank you.

[@TesLatino]

Best video closing call-to-action in all of KZbin for sure! Refreshing to hear that. Great video, by the way.

[@captgw]

Hi. Not sure if this has been mentioned but you don’t have to press AF point selection button to move the AF point. That’s to bring up the options to switch between them. You can move the AF points the way you mentioned without pushing the button.

[@MrTheobr]

Best tutorial that I have seen for the R6, well done and thank you!

[@rajeshpandey4131]

So nicely explained. Thank you

[@Dawnarizen]

Just got my R6 today. Thank you for this tutorial!!

[@sharissegrannan7224]

When using eye-tracking, when should you use one-shot and when should you use servo? I'm confused about the role of one-shot vs. servo when eye-tracking is on. Thanks!

[@evilonthebrakes]

Fantastic video and tutorial. You’re speaking fast but your illustrations make it easy to follow. I bought my R6 1 week ago and your tutorials will be watched. Can’t understand you don’t have more subscribers .. but you just got one more. Best regards from Denmark

[@TateNations]

Subscribed just based on this video. Great work.

[@leshanel3877]

Love the candor. Keep it up!!

[@janelleanderson27]

I could not figure out the Continuous AF on my camera! I needed to DISABLE it!! Thank you so much for clearing this up.

[@c230308]

Hi, I’m from Israel, thanks for the explanation, one of the best ever

[@brianbinnie1699]

Great stuff! I recently picked up an R6 and must say your tutorial is by far the best of those I've watched. And I've watched a lot! Only item missing, unless I missed it, is what version software is being used.

[@WorldviewVideo1]

Thank you. I like your teaching method!!

[@periapsis_synapses]

Great tutorial. Thank you!

[@elisabethlafontaine8979]

Really comprehensive video, thank you!

[@obediah1934]

Nicely done! Thanks!

[@ComadreMindy]

Great video!!! Thank you!! 👏🏻👏🏻

[@lenf3641]

Thanks for the video! With firmware update you can get birds and vehicles deduction.

[@KimberleeCharron]

Great video, thanks! I'm trying to figure out why I cannot access all my focus options on my R6. It will only let me access the first three options from face tracking to one point AF. I can see the others, but I cannot access them. Any help would be appreciated!

[@michaeljohnson7814]

In the video @ 1:00. My menu AF-1 doesn't have "AF Method". It has "AF area", face & eye tracking is not an option. What is the problem?

[@drtnrao57]

I like the you presented in simple words.I was trying for the last 3years to understand it in canon 80d ,but in vain.Bravo ,you cleared my ignorance to 99 percent.

[@drtnrao57]

I like the way you presented.

[@rolybaker7770]

Yassou Spiro sitting here in Corfu going through the setting up of my nerwR6 learning such a lot from your tutorials thanks a lot.

[@EPPhotography502]

This answered questions I didn’t know I had! Thank you

[@cooperskylerlee]

Thanks for this video. Very straight to the point and a great quick focus tutorial for someone that just got this brand new toy.

[@albertosohua]

It is amazing many times your videos appear when just I needed. Thanks for this very clear explanation

[@frederickmcdonald6636]

WOW - your tutorial is concise and to-the-point and I sure appreciate that it cleared up a lot of things for me. Really enjoyed this and will employ this next time I'm out, which will probably be later today; I shoot multiple times a week. Be safe and enjoy life and thank you for doing this....

[@markjarvis8759]

If the r6 mk2,with servo and subject detection. If the camera locks on to a subject, if you want it to track a different subject how do you get it to switch subject, please

[@davetodd1478]

Found your video extremely informative ,thanks Spyros. I've just purchased a R6 for full frame up from 7D Mkii ,your video has given me a great kickstart. Please keep up the great work, kind regards from South Africa.

[@sagetheowlfatfeathery2083]

Why would you select single shot vs servo, and how would that work if you’ve got tracking enabled? Don’t understand.

[@syumassh]

Thanks this helped me! Appreciate the effort!

[@Bigbeardfpv]

Question: So if you pick a zone, it will only try to focus on a face or eye if it is within the zone correct? Does this work the same for the spot focus...essentially the camera will only try to eye focus if you point the spot directly at a face?

[@karyncarbone6902]

How can I change it so that once I select my focal point I can just press my shutter button half way, instead of having to press the AF on button on the back of the camera!? Please and thank you!

[@dark3nough]

Love you man!! 🙏 👍🏿💪🏿💪🏿🏆🏆🏆

[@life_in_gen]

How does it compare to Sonys real time tracking?

[@xodius80]

Hi, is canon spot metering still ONLY on center? That's a real deal breaker if so

[@policeluber6720]

Should I keep my canon 1dxii ? Or use (my 4 years old to only one owner me from adorama ) my 1dxii body only with double charger and 4 batteries as a trade in to get the R6 .....would this be a worthy upgrade? I shoot sports and portrait occasionally. More sports .... have canon ef trinity already.

[@christofr.9923]

Can I combine the single autofocus point with the spot exposure?

[@davidkirk1426]

Great video Spyros, really Interested in the EOS R6. I had some queries on it, and found the folk on Canon Live Chat to be really helpful and friendly, however it's great to see the capabilities here.

[@normameyers4904]

Is live chat free and can you post the link of the one you used?

[@FracturedAngel_]

This may sound like a stupid question but there's sometimes I just want to take a photo and I want it all come into focus I played around with my settings and I have yet to accomplish

[@natalialeksandrov366]

Fantastic thank you

[@nixland]

On R6 II, the face tracking option in AF Method is gone

[@dawannaconner7043]

why is my Af operation mode stuck in MF. how do i get it back to AF?

[@EileenS-c8o]

My camera has One Shot/ AI focus / and Servo. You gave example of merely one shot and servo.

[@wahidgunawan4479]

Thank's

[@policeluber6720]

I,shot,the entire olympics with a 1dxii all in case 1 ai servo simple .....the other ones don’t really pan out

[@policeluber6720]

If it had the canon 1dxiii or R3 knobby af on like lightning fast af auto fuckArse ! Button ! - Knob ! R6 ii PRO WILL HAVE same sensor as r3 plus new awesome af on knobby mouse like,thing !

[@julianarata9697]

I wanna know why you believe that we should be in one shot most of the time

[@NPCPresident]

I wish you had gone slower. I just couldn't keep up with your instructions.

[@pierrestephenson4231]

Then pause it, try it, and resume. Not too hard.

[@practicalphotography1235]

So, basically, you said nothing beyond what's already in the manual.

[@pierrestephenson4231]

He covers a lot more in better detail and concisely. Don’t be a jerk.

[@sammorganmoore]
