That's a lotta work Jared. Patience and energy...wow! Awesome! I just got my R8 and I cannot be more thankful for this video.

I also just got my R8 about a month ago and while it is a big learning curve for me since i have never owned a camera other than my phone camera, i know it will be worthwhile and fun to learn. I used to think my phone was enough for my needs but than thought i was ready for something more professional

Jared is the best out here, quick, straight to the point, detailed instructions. I watch no one else because I don't want my precious time wasted. Thanks Jared!

As you´ve recently talked about it in the podcast, i wanted to let you know that i really appreciate you putting in the time and effort to produce these super detailed userguides, very helpfull for beginners getting their first camera and even intermediate or pros when it comes to complex menus. Keep up the great work.

I must have watched a zillion videos on KZread, and I never left a comment. But this one deserves a big 'thank you'! So, thank you for taking the time to make this video that has saved me a ton of time and increased my knowledge on this camera immensely. On my first day of owning the R8, you have walked me through all the settings and now I'm good to go, to learn and to enjoy!. So, again, thanks! Appreciated!

Thanks, Jared! I don’t own an R8. I probably won’t ever buy an R8 because I own a Sony a7R-V and don’t really have any need for an R8. But nevertheless, I watched this entire video and found it quite entertaining. As a professional, I want to constantly stay up to date about the features of each camera brand as well as where to find specific settings so I can help other people using other camera systems.

Thank you very much for this video. I have the R8 since about a month, and I am very happy with it. I'm not new to photography, but the R8 has so many more options and features than my 7D and M50-II, so I learned a lot today. And it is much more fun to go through all the settings with you than with the book. 😃 Greetings from Switzerland

Just bought a R8 today and I just remembered again how much I love you Jared. Sekai no Besuto!

Just picked the R8 up as a second body to my Canon R6MII. Really appreciate your taking the time to do these User’s Guides …. So much better than the user manual. Thank you for this!

Started watching this the other day after it was posted,, went through it again just to try and recall the info.. Thank you very much for putting this video out.. I bought the R8 and am starting at level 1 as my first/last camera was the Rebel xt. I'm loving this thing, and love it even more after this video and getting the run down of what the things actually do!

Thank you for not being a bore. Your video is informative but is not a challenge to watch. Keep up the good work.

I watched your video when i was setting up my EOS R10 and i just picked up EOS R8 and i am watched your video again. Thank you so very much, i hope youtube pays you well for your exceptional content

Got my R8 yesterday. Your D5500 guide helped me in 2018. Now this.. Thank you Jared...

I’m buying this camera this week.

Super helpful, thanks for putting the time into making this video! Reading the manual is one thing but hearing the pros/cons of a setting from a pro is more helpful to me. Now I finally have the AF settings configured perfectly for what I need.

This is amazing, it was really really useful. My R8 just arrived today so I watched the whole thing. I'm glad you keep creating this amazing content. Thank you!!!

Wow, thank you for taking the time to do this! It's been a huge timesaver for me. I purchased this camera a few weeks ago to make KZread content and it's my first camera since I purchased a Sony Cybershot almost 20 years ago. Learned so much!

The best video for R8 on KZread

I’ve got the R8 and your tutorial is very helpful! Thank you!

Canon should be paying Jared for this - not because he needs sponsors, but because he's doing the job they couldn't be bothered to do properly.

I’ve been waiting for this user’s guide. Thanks Jared!!

Hi Jared. I just got my Canon EOS R8 and absolutely love it! I’m switching from the Canon EOS T7i so it’s taking me a little getting used to, but all in all I am very happy making this switch. It seems like everyone is going from DSLR to mirrorless. I love that I can still use my EF lenses and can also use the same battery from my T7i.

Excellent (as usual), Jared! I’ll be getting my new R8 TOMORROW from B&H. This video will help me immensely with initial set-up, just like your video for the RP set-up did that I recently traded-in via B&H.

I just picked this up and I've been waiting for this video from you! Thanks!

I bought the R8 about 3 weeks ago and i love it. It’s my first ever camera and i am using it for fashion photography. From day 1 i started shooting manual since i felt that would give me the best feeling for whatever does what. And it has worked out perfectly for me. Just wrapped up my first fashion project a few days ago and im happy with how it turned out.

Wonderful review James! the most insightful and detailed review video comparison of the R6 Mark II and R8!

Jared you are the best! Thank you for taking the time and making this informative and fun.

this is awesome! I just got this and need to get up to speed fast for an upcoming trip to Africa this fall. thanks for making this so easy to understand!

Thank you so much for such an in-depth and comprehensive overview! My R8 arrives today and while this will be my fourth Canon camera, my other three are at least 10 years old (and consumer-level) and this R8 has recent technologies that are new to me.

Perfect video for new users of the Canon R8. Thank you!

Thank you so much I learned more about this camera being a newbie than I could imagine

Thank you for this video by the way. Recently go the R8 and this helped me ALOT.

The other use case for allowing the camera to take photos with no lens attached is when using manual lenses. I do Astrophotography and manual lenses are a way of life for me. Because the lens has no electronics the camera thinks there is no lens attached.

thank you so much i watched the entire thing it was super helpful i am looking forward to giving it a try taking photos

Oh Gods! This is the most helpful R8 video I've found on the internet! English is not my native language, but this video helped me to find out information and improve my English level) Thank you very much!

Thanks for doing these. Didn't need a lot of it since I traded in an RP for an R8, but it's fun to watch alongside a new purchase.

You are so amazing! 🎉 On the third play through I was able to follow you while pretty much asleep during parts. Great lucid learning teacher! 😂

Thank you! Love my R8 purchase and this video is exactly what I needed.

Great informative video going through everything. Good effort !! My R8 joins my R5 as a lighter weight option which actually, after a brief play, is more appealing !! IBIS lacking is a pain but that's about it.

Hi Mate, This is a huge help for a beginner like me, just bought the R8 with 50mm 1.8 today. Hope i am on the right track.

ive been in a toss up between the r6 mark 2 and the r8 for my real estate photos and decided on the r8 thank you for this video cant wait to get my camera in about a week I upgraded from the rp

Great video Jared and team! This is my first "real" camera and your in depth guide was so helpful. The only input I can add that will help other's is that if you accidentally hit the "OK" button to format the sd card, it does not warn you before erasing your card!! Jared mentions that there is a warning, there isn't in firmware 1.0.0. Is there a setting?

Literally got mine today and jumped to this video inmediatly

finally Jared today i buy the r8 and 50mm 1.8 i hope have more money soon to buy all your Preset THANKS FOR ALL you made me try again this hobby.

Hey man I saw you at the B&H expo in NYC. Loved hearing your story and inspiring me to purchase the R*. Keep grinding man. Would love to catch up when you are back in NYC!

Thank you so much for this detail video ❤

Thanks so much for all the info!! You have helped me a lot!! Appreciate you!

Thanks for this. Learned a lot

Absolutely amazing video! I am very grateful for this Jared. Cheer.

Thanks for this detailed video!

Thanks for sharing another wonderful video like always 📸👍

thank you so much for that amount of info. Greatest!

Cheers for the informative vid mate.. subscribed 👌

been waiting for this one baby!!!!!

I found this guide so helpful.

+Jared Polin I think the "release shutter without lens, on" allows for using non-Canon lenses in manual focus. I don't have one to try but that is what I had to do with my OM-1 before I switched to Canon.

Thank you for making so easy.

Very helpful! Thank you

“Too legit to quit” I genuinely audibly laughed. Great video! Keep up the good work and thanks for all the help!

Good to see The Fro still going strong. Been away from the hobby for 5 years. I think I’m going to trade in my 5Dmk4 for an R8. Debating if I want to adapt for my holy trinity L series or just trade everything in and dive into the RF lenses… that’s the main debate.

this one was much needed as i had just purchased r8 yesterday and i gosh.. setting are all over my me.not able to figure out stuff.... that's so helpful ❤

I just ordered one

Best R8 video 🔥🔥🔥

thank you so much for the video

Great content!!!

I chose the R8. I had to sell my eos r and the 24-105 L for a weird cash flow reason. I did not like the eos r. When I came back to the market, I bought the r8 with the 24-105L Great start. I also sold the 15-35 L 2.8 and an ef 100 to 400 f4. 2. Replaced with the 14-35 f4 L much lighter and with modern cameras,who needs to haul around a massive 2.8 chunk of lens? I also replaced the ef 100-400 with an adapter for the rf 100-500L. Not really used this yet. So impressed with the forward journey of Canon since I bought my eos r. Autofocus on the R8 is astonishing.

Thank you so much for this detailed video. Because you have a very clear pronunciation, I was able to understand it very well, even though English is not my native language."

Thanks very helpful, I just bought a canon r8, and I'm interested in time Lapse is there a video that tells me a bit more about it. xxxxxx stars on the guide

Thanks a ton!!

Thank you Sir

Well done Sir!

Hello Jared thanks for the information about the EOS R8, which is the best lens, I have the 24 - 105mm and 70-200mm thanks again

From setting up my first camera Nikon D5500 with Jared to here ❤

Just upgraded from a DSLR to the R8 and the sheer amount of menu options is insane 😂😂

Interesting and good video as usual. However, I was a bit surprised by your reaction regarding 'none' when it comes to subject detection. At least I use it when I want to track an object that is not included in the other three settings - and to prevent the autofocus from jumping to, for example, a person or a dog. With that setting, I decide what should be tracked and not the camera. If I then quickly want to follow a face, I have eye AF set to a button.

Hi @Jared, for you, what is better for professional photography, the Canon R8 or the Sony AIII?

I love you buddy. thanks for showing me the canon R8. Im all about budget full frame cameras and the canon RP is great but this has the guts of the r6 mark ii with RP body. for me that's a win! overheating is an issue a little bit. but so far I have managed with a full hour of on and off shooting

from spain, incredible🎉🎉

Brilliant

Fro knows the R8 ✊!!

50:21 “Viewfinder Display” if enabled will show the Image Review IN the EVF for the set number of seconds. So if you take a shot, and release the shutter, it will pop up in your EVF until the time runs out or you half press the shutter again. Total crap to use and leave it off 😅

So nice 👍

Hi I am following your video with my new EOS R8 and during the setting mode M at 57:26 min, you are talking about the AF operation . When I am on the M mode , I can only see one AF operation which is MF . Why I don't have the other options such as Servo/ one shot/ AI Focus ? thank you so much for your help ! I really enjoy learning how to use my new camera with you !

Inciorrect on Diopter adjustment Fro. Don't even need a lens! Just adjust for max clarity on the viewfinder information. Much more accurate.

Hi, I bought a R8 with 50/1.8 it looks nice. Is it possible to set a better battery indicator in percentage?

The 1.6x crop is for when you must use an asp-c lens so you zoom to not see the black halo?

Nice

Regarding the Vertical Movie Mode: is anyone else having trouble with stabilising footage in FCPX with this setting on? I was so excited to see this feature come to the R8 (I upgraded as soon as it was released) but found when I had this setting on, that Final Cut would say that it’s Analysing Video but dragging the sliders does nothing. If anyone has any insight into this I’d love to hear from you!

Many thanks for this cool instructional video. I'd say you know photo!

Hey! Can the canon R8 compete with the Sony a7iii? Would it be worth buying it over the Sony a7iii? Which should I buy canon r8 or sony a7iii? Answer me!

The higher light color temperature (Kelvin), the cooler (towards blue) the light gets. It was said the reverse in the video.

dang, i just watched the entire video as if i have own this camera but soon i will buy this canon r8 camera :)

In regards to SD card memory, how much memory is ideal? Is it better to have multiple 64gb cards or a few 128gb or higher?

Jarod, can one turn off the touch screen to keep the focus point in the center of screen. My wife and I are going on vacation to Europe and when she borrows the camera to take a picture, I need to the it in the center for hher. This is about the Canon R8.

This dude is hilarious. Crank up that sensitivity

Guys, what would you advice me to get ? The Fujifilm XH2S or The Canon EOS R6ii. I'm primarily a photographer ( wedding & portraits) and also want to do video during the off season ( documentary/ short film ). I've got a budget of 5K and I'm so in love with the Fuji colour science. Please help me out.
