Originally designed as an eBook, this guide by Nina Bailey covering the EOS R6 camera is now available as a black-and-white spiral bound reprint in your choice of either A4 or A5 size.
This eBook will fast-track your learning and bolster your camera confidence. You'll learn much more with this book than just using the instruction manual alone, as Nina explains what the features do, how to set them up and when to use them.
Whether you're new to photography or your EOS R5 is your latest camera companion, you'll learn what you need with this guide. The basics of photography are explained, as are the differences with this camera compared to earlier DSLR and mirrorless models.
Because this camera is such an evolution, the way you shoot needs to adapt to the new technology. Nina explains how the new features, such as the in-body image stabilisation and Animal AF options, work and how to configure the settings to get the best results.
Your EOS R5 is also highly customisable, meaning you can tailor it to suit the way you shoot. All of the options are explained in detail, along with advice as to how to consider which customisations you may want to use, as the way you customise your camera will be different to someone else's.
Illustrated liberally with comparison shots and menu screens, this eBook will get you up to speed quickly and navigating your camera confidently.
4th edition released December 2021, covering firmware version 1.5.0 and above. The latest version also includes extra information based on frequently asked questions.
