White Balance - allows me to quickly dial in my custom Kelvin temperature.ī. That way you can access them quickly without having to try and page through your menu system. What this allows you to do is set up that page so that you can put your favorite, most accessed menu settings on one page so that when you press the menu button it will take you right to a page of those menu options. In the camera menu settings if you move all the way over to the right you will find a green star with the title "My Menu." In fact, it is probably the one I use most often. It surprises me to find out how many Canon photographers are not using this menu function on their camera.

I have found this to be much easier than trying to choose the correct ISO button on top of the camera. One other customization that I love is while I am looking through my viewfinder if I feel need to change my ISO all I need to do is use my thumb to hold down the SET button (large button in the middle of the large dial on the back of the camera) and then rotate the Shutter dial on top of the camera. Change ISO using Set button and Shutter Speed Dial

So rather than change them in 1/3 stop increments I changed it so my ISO only changes in full stops. For me I have really found no reason to have precision control over my ISO speeds. I like to keep things simple on the camera whenever I can. Now when you press the Rate button you either get one star or press it again it will turn it back to O. Now press the "Q" button on your camera to bring up the settings for the Rating button.

I can download the photos I star rated during the dinner time at a wedding to quickly create a slideshow of some photos from the wedding. So I can show some of the best photos at the end of a shoot to the clients immediately using the in camera slideshow and set it to only show the photos I rated good. While out on a shoot I love using the new "Rate" button so I can do some initial culling in camera. There choose the second option down "Selectable AF Point" and then "Only cross-type AF points." Just go to the fourth page on the AF settings of the Menu. In order to insure that I am always using one of the cross-type focus points I turned off all others. While I appreciate that the 5D Mark III has 61 Auto Focus points, I really only want to use the 41 points that are cross-type focus coverage thereby giving me a higher level of focus. Since I never use it to check the depth of field, I decided to assign it using the Custom Menu Settings so that when I press and hold the button down it changes my camera from One Shot to Ai Servo.īy making this customization I can shoot most often in my favorite focus setting (One Shot) but when I encounter movement in my photo (people walking towards me for example) I can use my ring finger on my right hand to hold this button down thereby changing my settings from One Shot to Ai Servo allowing my camera to track the subject and continually focus on them. It is located on the front of the camera by the lens mount below the shutter release button. The DOF (Depth of Field) button is one of those forgotten buttons that most camera users hardly ever use or even know it exists. Change the DOF button to immediately change One Shot to Ai Servo While the focus of this article and accompanying screen shots are from the 5D Mark III it is also relevant to other cameras as many of these settings can be located on numerous camera models. Here are the 5 settings I have changed to make an already great camera even better. There are many different ways you can customize your camera's settings and I'd definitely encourage you to explore the camera and play with the settings to find out what works best for you.
