This CANON RF glass setting that i'm about to show you is such a well-kept secret that it took a
CANON employee to show me this and to explain to me how it worked this exclusive feature to
the rf glass allows you to harness the power of auto focus manual focus and magnification
all at the exact same time this setting is so top secret in fact that if you go and
search for it in youtube right now there are zero relevant search results that will pop up for you
in fact most of the videos featured won't even show any mirrorless canon cameras
now this is going to work on any of your mirrorless canon cameras
from the rp all the way to the r5 and it will also work if you are a back button shooter or a front
trigger shooter we're going to be using the r6 but if you're having trouble finding these
settings for your specific canon mirrorless camera i have a free pdf linked down in the
description to help you out now to maximize the effect of this rf exclusive feature you're
going to have to come into these settings and adjust a few other things now the first stop
that we're going to make is in the af purple under number two manual focus peaking settings
i'm going to go here and turn them on then we're going to go to the level have it on high
and then you can select the color to whatever you like i find red to be a good color
next is the focus guide and what the focus guide does
is it will allow you to when your lens is in manual focus
as you adjust it you see those little lines right there up at the top it shows you when
it's in and out of focus you can see when it is in focus that the reindeer turns red when it's
out of focus so you can see that red coming onto it so right now it's only the back horns
that are in focus none of it's in focus and then the front side of this reindeer is in focus
so that's the first feature that you're going to need to set up to maximize the effect and
the next customization that we have is under af number 5 focus ring rotation and remember these
are just the things that are helping you use the final setting that i'm going to show you
so you can choose which direction it's going to turn in
then you can switch the sensitivity of the lens i have mine set to the degrees rather than the speed
rotation and here it is the final setting that was explained to me by a canon employee
it is the lens electronic manual focus so you go in here to the lens electronic manual
focus and what this will allow you to do is while you're using your af so normally it's set to off
but we need to select here so when you're in one shot arrow enabled this will allow you
when you take a shot it will can get auto focus and when you hold it halfway
then you're able to adjust auto focus and fine tune exactly where you want it
so you can see right there the deer has lit up red and we can see that it's almost exactly in focus
right there now it's in perfect focus and you can take your image then the next setting that you can
use for this is the one shot enabled magnify and what this will allow you to do is use the audio
focus half depressed on the shutter button and then you're as soon as you start rolling forward
or back on the manual focus it will magnify wherever you are looking at right where that auto
focus button is so you can see exactly where you want it to be in focus however on this one it will
not allow you to use the the red or any of the marker colors for it because you're so zoomed in
it would be nice if they would but it won't and then these your settings down below will turn red
because they're locked into whatever you have them at that moment then you take your picture
and this works the exact same using the back af button as well adjusting
and then taking your photo
and the greatest part about setting this up for your rf glass is that it will stay out of the
way until you need it it will not impair any of the functions that you would normally enjoy or
anything it will never get in the way except for when you need it it will be there to use so you
can always turn this on and never worry about getting in the way this helps you shoot through
foliage to get a more precise image when you're trying to you know shoot exactly on the
eye and you're not entirely sure this will help with the autofocus for the rp and the canon r
some of the times they're just not quite as accurate as the r6 and the r5
and this is just a wonderful setting to turn on for your auto focus i have another video that's
going to be popping up over there for auto focus settings they're going to help you out as well
if that's something you're into as well if you're having trouble inside these settings and the menus
don't forget to check out the free pdfs i've created to help you get through
all of your menus throughout the rp to the r5 go ahead and check those
out in the description thank you so much for watching my name is daniel and have a great day
