Canon R5 Set Up - Birds and Birds in Flight an Update

Welcome everyone. This video is an update to my comprehensive look at setting up the Canon R5 for bird and bird in flight photography from the perspective of a bird photographer. Over the months I have been using the Canon R5 I have tweaked my settings. So, here are my current settings from start to finish through the entire menu system. You can find more information on my bird photography on my website www.whistlingwingsphotography.com if you are interested. Thanks so much for watching.

Note: during the Back Button AF Setup portion of the video I misspoke and stated you need to hit the Register Current Settings when you completed the setup for the AF Point Button. Do not hit Register as that will register all your current camera settings. Instead just back out of the menu. Sorry for the confusion.
