I hope the 5R continues by offering this manual focus peaking tool even with an EF 24-105 f4 IS USM II or 70-200 f2.8 L IS USM (slightly older lenses but still Canon). As a wedding photographer who is also visually impaired, I have very rarely shot manual simply because I can't focus the camera (so AF it is), except for fine details like wedding rings and bands. This focus peaking tool is awesome and would certainly help me brave the wilds of M mode more often ;).

Give us the focus guide on the cheaper Canon RP please!I'm not paying $1000 extra for the one feature! Also where the heck is the 24fps in the Canon RP! It's absurd that you would cripple it like this!

It would be great if peaking worked also with focus zoom. There could be an option to zoom out while half pressing shutter button

Hi, novice here, but are we assuming that we can manually focus better then the auto-focus of the camera? Do experts rely on manual focus? Thank you.

I purchased the eos R and the 24 to 70 f 2.8 lens a few months back and was perplexed on how to get any kind of focus with it at all. Then after many tutorials and looking things up about focus issues with the camera I found that by following another photographers settings on youtube I had made a huge mistake. I had turned off the camera's ability to focus on its own. I had wondered why the lens worked on another camera and why the manual focus worked well but not the auto focus. sheesh! lol Now the camera takes photos that I can get behind but the camera is still noting like anything I have ever used before when it comes to the focus. I have been using olympus E 410 for years and then acquired the Canon T5. I still use the 410 because i have a lens that is equivalent to 600mm and would be way to expensive for me to replace right now. Both the olympus and T5 pretty much focus on the whole scene and so the whole photo is pretty much all in focus. My question is how do I do this with the eos R? I love the way I can really focus in on one area of a photo by picking that area with the view finder but it kind of does the same thing on its own when I am taking photos of a landscape and I want the whole thing in focus. It changes what is in focus too with the movement of the camera. For instance, yesterday I was shooting a park it was giving me one little square in focus and then I moved the camera and then six showed up then moved it again and more but by then I didn't even have the same scene in my view through the lens. I really need help with this. Thanks

Does Focus Guide only apply to native Canon lens? Does it work with vintage & cinema manual, or even Leica M lenses ? Thanks!

Focus peaking while focus zooming just like FUJI XT4 ? That would be perfect

Hello Canon USA, I saw you moving the focus peaking around the camera screen may I ask which dial on the camera did you use?

Focus guide doesn't appear to work with Samyang lenses. No Box or arrows appears, but focus peaking does work. Is there a reason for that?

@canon does it recognise eyes? So you can manual focus on eyes when you take portraits with like Canon FD lenses...

Does Canon EOS RP has the same possibility of setting focus with manual lenses ? I mean "index marks" that are moving to one line and changing into green .
