Love how the day this video comes out is the same exact day my new R6 came in the mail lol

[Chromedbustop]

31:41 "Yes, this is long. This is a lot of stuff." And it's appreciated! If someone has a problem with the length of these kinds of videos they can just pause them, go do something else, and watch more later. Or read the manual, or just figure it out themselves.

THANK YOU for taking the time to go in depth like this.

Got a backup R6 today and used this video to set it up, and there's nothing I love more than the John Locke reference.

[VentaskrastsMedia]

Bought this camera today and I can't express how much this video helped me.

Previously I owned 6D Mark I, that I bought back in 2014.
Original 6D was straight forward, but there's a lot more options in this camera.

Again thank you, Jared, for taking the time to make this informative and, as always, up beat video!

[thesongwritingstudio]

Very helpful, thanks! After using a Nikon for so long and recently switching to an r6 I needed all the help with every little button and menu!

[cathco]

Thanks very much Jared. I've owned my R6 for two months now. This video will help me tweak the settings even more.

[jamesr]

just watching this pretty much because I just picked up my R6. This was probably be best video of this type I have seen, complete & wonderful to hear at least a short blurb about the job of each menu setting. I know it was long but from my perspective, it was a very good piece. Thank you.

[bwwemetallica]

I love the timing on this! I just ordered an R6 early this morning and am waiting to pick it up after work. Thanks!!!

[Skene_O]

Thanks Jarrod. Just upgraded from a 6D and this was a great help in setting up. BTW, thanks for all the vids you guys put out. Keep it going .

[alphaandomega]

I really love these slow burner videos. Great Job Jared 😁👍🏻 excited for this video!

[stingofpurlear]

This is just what I needed just got mine yesterday and I'm doing my first shoot today!

[DanUnplanned]

Awesome, gonna enjoy watching this! Been loving listen to the daily fro while on nightshift dude! Trying to grow my channel as filming is what I love along with travel! Thank you for being a huge inspiration

[rdog]

Another great camera setup walk through. I know these are long, but much needed when getting started. Thanks for doing this FroKnows ! btw watch many older walk through from your channel

[levibaruch]

Nice video! One thing, a reason to release without lens is if you adapt manual focus analog lenses on your camera

[Kidouble]

Just getting into Photography. Picked up a R6. Jared, THANK YOU for this video. It was very, very helpful!! Amazing content for someone who has not had years of experience with these cameras. Again thank you!

[ryannatwick]

I was literally going through this process googling every menu option I didn't know and this popped up as a recommended vid off another one I clicked on and I was so stoked! Thank you so

[lkuhn]

This video is amazing! I have been using the R6 for a year now and had no idea how much I didn’t know. Thank you!

[gabedamien]

I am usually stubborn about reading manuals, but I saw the 850 pager for the R6 and balked. This video is great, a way faster and more pleasant way to get all the important stuff across. Thanks!

[GeoHvl]

I have over the past few weeks watched this video several times. It amazes me the things the R6 will do. Very informative video.

[valscherrer]

Thank you VERY much Jared. I got my R6 about half a year ago (i loooove it) and was playing around with the settings. That Video helped me to get deeper into the settings and understand them better. cheers from switzerland...
