Thanks so much for this video. I am new to shooting video, so setting up the R5 for video was daunting, since I am only just learning what all those settings mean. Thanks for not just spewing out settings, but patiently explaining each one as you worked your way through them. Just 4 hours ago I started learning about Canon Log and using LUTs in Premiere. I guessed as settings for Canon Log in the R5. You video confirmed my choices, and helped me understand them better.
