Magnification is one of the oldest tools for verifying focus. Originally done by with a loupe held to your view camera's ground glass. Modern digital cameras with live view capabilities and simply show us the data right from the sensor.
In this video we'll look at the magnification options and modes found on Canon's R5C (which also apply to Canon's other cinema cameras tool). How to activate and navigate with the magnified view. And the customizations that are available for the magnified view on the R5C.
Of course, it's hard to talk bout the R5C without comparing it to the R5, and we'll do a lot of that in this video looking at the pros and cons of the magnification system between the two cameras.
Are you using the R5C in photo mode? Or are you using a Canon EOS R series hybrid camera or EOS DLSR? If so you'll want this video • Magnification Focusing Aid - R5/R6 Tip 79 looking at the magnifier on those cameras.
