Glad you liked it, @Joey112100. Thanks for posting.

@kathysportfilmphoto thanks for the comment. The green pouches are from LensCoat (lenscoat.com/) They are called Lens Pouches. Love the. The International is big. I've touched it a few times during my trips. It's bigger than the Roller Derby so be aware that it can be heavier. I love the Airport Advantage because it's lighter. The Roller Derby is my second choice. Let me know what you finally decide!

@@KathyAdamsClark thanks for the reply. Went with the International. Good for storage. Not sure how much it will get used on the road because I have the Advantage too and smaller bags are great as I get older. The Canon RF lenses are chunky and mobility takes bit of thinking & planning. Will see how it goes. The lens pouches look fab, thanks for the info. Not sure if I need them but they look great and protection is super important.

Thanks. I appreciate the kind comment!

Thanks for the kind comment! I appreciate it!

Slow motion gives us a chance to look at details. All the little flies around the lions. Amazing stuff!! Thanks for commenting! @edbarrios7124

@IamPPTWR they are so cute. And, yes, they will eat you for dinner. Amazing creatures.

They do indeed, @isotechimages.9130. By the time it's all over, there's only bones and horns.

Yes, @edbarrios7124, you've seen them. You know how elegant they are. Thanks for the nice comment.

@IamPPTWR -- thanks for the comment. It is neat to see. Appreciate your support.

My thoughts exactly @IamPPTWR Once you get used to looking for the "point on the top of a termite mound" it's fun. Cheetahs are so amazing!

@isotechimages.9130 Agree completely. It can get really hot out there. Thanks for your comment.

Thanks! @tpiordowski. Appreciate the comment.

Thanks!! @edbarrios7124 Both are such amazing creatures.

thanks for the tip, @KathyEyster. The AUTO SYNC button in Lightroom gives people troubles until they learn how to use it. Thanks for the clear explanation. Appreciate it!

@@KathyAdamsClark Yes, Auto Synch can really create a "gotcha" situation. Copy & paste is safer. I was just trying to give a Lightroom equivalent to what you were showing in ACR. Thanks.

@@KathyEyster Understand and I appreciate it!

Correct, @KathyEyster. I thought I mentioned that somewhere. Appreciate your input!!

Thanks for the comment, @oneyedphotographer. Adobe Camera Raw makes it so easy to do batch processing. It's lovely the way it works. As Adobe gives us more features in ACR, I'm finding that I need to go into Photoshop less and less. So nice! Thanks for posting!

I suspect you can save as a Custom Function, @preven2296. I don't use the Custom Functions very much. There are not that many things I photograph that need radically different functions. Most are a change in f/stop or shutter speed but not a lot of menu changes. Thanks for the comment and for supporting my page!

I would assume you can, @AnthonySby43 I worked on a client's computer last week and they had the shortcut keys configured. I've never found a need so leave them as they are. Thanks for the question!

I don't know the answer to that question, @greggroberts. The Canon has 4K UHD video at 60 frames per second. Love the slomo videos that it produces.

Enjoy!!

It is a great camera! Thanks for the post!

Thanks for the kind comments @BanyanRanchStudios. Appreciate it! A friend recently switched to the R6ii and he said the auto focus "is like a heat seeking missile." I have to agree. I'm always going to recommend that you put the new RF lenses on the R cameras. That's new technology on new technology. The combination of new technology is always going to work better. So, yes, if you can afford it, put the RF 100-500mm, RF 1.4x, and R6ii together. That combination is amazing for bird and wildlife photography. An adapter will work. It does pretty well. Go with that if that is your option based on finances. My recommendation is to sell the old equipment to finance the new. Photographers will gladly buy your older equipment. It's good! I hope that helps!

@CarlosHernandez-kg8py -- thanks! Glad you liked it.

Thanks! @edbarrios7124, glad you liked it!

Super! Glad you liked it. @ptvfr800 thanks for the post and for watching.

Glad you liked it @lamPPTWR. Nice that these are calming!

Great ID information! Thanks for the comment @Common4

Thanks for the commment @DavidSwarthout I used to start with Clarity, Vibrance, and Saturation but the Texture slider was so much better. Texture adds texture to bird feathers, fur, hair, etc. I like the way it brings out details. Personally, I like that better than adding contrast. Auto is not a bad starting point. Thanks!!

Thanks @tomoday6592. Glad I could help!

I'm glad my words helped. You can see what I'm considering when editing. Thanks for the comment!

Thanks for asking. Lessons 4 to Lessons 11 cover batch processing with Adobe Camera Raw out of Bridge. These are a bit dated, but the workflow is the same. Batch processing is so easy with Bridge and Adobe Camera Raw (ACR). Watch the videos and you'll see. Thanks for the reminder. I need to update that series of videos.

@frednorman1 thanks for the comment. Both have an outside pocket for a 15" laptop. I'd never travel that way, though. Once the bag is loaded, add the laptop in the laptop pouch, and. . . The laptop is pressed pretty tight against the contents of the bag. It looks to me that the laptop is going to get broken. I've never tried it but it doesn't look right to me. I put my laptop in the small backpack on my back when I travel. So the answer is "yes" there is an outside pocket.

Thanks, @adude394, I'm glad I could help. Let me know if there are any questions as you work with the new camera. Thanks for posting.

@JohnnyStroud that's great to hear. The workflow with Bridge/Adobe Camera Raw is so easy. I'm glad my video could help! Thanks for the kind comment.

Thanks @fifthimagez !

Thanks for the kind comment, @JdilpkleRS Yes, I totally believe in using Manual mode until you feel very comfortable choosing f/stop, shutter speed, ISO for bird photography. (I teach a Basic Photography class online that concentrates on this.) Regarding back button focus, it all depends on your hands. My hand didn't work well with back button focus on the DSLR cameras. My thumb was busy moving the focus point around on the DSLR cameras so it was occupied. On the R6ii, my hand hits that button very well. My thumb doesn't have to do many other tasks so back button focus works well for me. Back button focus all depends on your hands and the egonomics of the camera. Good question!

Thanks a lot, @movinginfaith7. I appreciate the comment. Glad you liked the video.

Good question, @duboweek. I used to use Adobe RGB as my color space. A year or so ago, I switched to Display P3. The greens and reds are supposed to be more vibrant. Most of my work is seen on a screen by my editors, students, and creatives. I project most of my work during programs on large screen TVs versus the older digital projectors. I rarely print an image so don't need that color space. Publishers convert the color spaces on my images to meet the needs of their projects so my processing color space isn't a big concern to them. So for me, the Display P3 color space works. Change that to the color space that meets your needs.

@@KathyAdamsClark Great,thank you for details!

Thanks for the comment, @anand-iyer. I only use the viewfinder. Rarely in macro or something like that will I use the back of the camera. So, yes the R6ii viewfinder is super easy to follow moving subjects. I have the viewfinder set to anti-flicker and Display Simulation set to Exposure. Works great.

That's a good point, @TheChadWork2001. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. I never shoot in P and never teach shooting in P. I only use TV, AV, and M. Here's what I say in class: "The engineers at the camera companies assume you don't know how to use f/stop, shutter speed, ISO so they give you the P button. In P, a lot of menus and functions are grayed out or not visible at all. Features you paid for are gone because you're in the P mode. Learn how to shoot in TV, AV, and M so that you have total control of your camera and have all the features you paid for." Hope that helps and thanks for the completely valid question.

You are welcome. Glad I could help and thank for watching, @johnthomasdoyle1964

Thanks for the input, @larryglatt2548. Some might fine it helpful.

Thanks for the comment, @mike_channon. I'm using a 27-inch Mac monitor. Works great for me.

Thanks for the post, @TonyinTownNZ. I feel your pain on the slow situation. I've only seen that when the computer has limited space. Either on the hard drive or on the external drive. I saw this last week while on tour in Costa Rica. One person could never get their photos to load. Turns out it was a space issue. Space meaning "scratch disk", hard drive, or external drive space. We Purged the Cache in Bridge, Adobe Camera Raw, and PS. Then we moved the photos to a new external hard drive. Problem solved for that person. Interesting that you don't see the "Adobe Bridge 2024" at the top next to File and Edit. Are you Mac or PC? On the latest Mac machines, the top tool bar will disappear until you put the cursor up there. Maddening to me so I don't have that feature activated. Let me know if any of this works for you. As an FYI, all my photos and documents are on external hard drives. My machines only have programs on them.

I am on a windows pc. I also have my photos on external hard drives, all 22,0000 of them. My previous version of bridge was fast and easy, no issues, and I am only doing what I have always done. I estimate it's taking me at least three hours to complete what I did in less than one hour with the old version. My cache is set up the same way and I do nothing different. Even trying to change keywords is literally taking hours. It used to take minutes. I see nothing good in this latest version of bridge. They should have left it well alone. Thanks for your kind response though. I guess I am stuck with it. Regards, Tony @@KathyAdamsClark

@@TonyInTownNZ that sounds horrible. Not like anything I've seen on my computer and those of students and friends. I'd suggest a delete and reinstall of the program. Something is not right. Give that a try.

Thanks. Will do. Certainly slow and frustrating.

Thanks for the question, @abhijeetraut3456 Yes, that's the way I do it. I have not changed much because I don't use the Quick Control screen that much.

You are welcome, @DeniseJ. Thanks for the comment.

Thanks for the comment, @SuzenBonnett. First, the odd file is called an XMP file. Keep it. That file contains all your editing information. Delete it and all you editing, metadata, and keywords disappear. To your jpg question, if you click on a JPG in Bridge it will automatically open in Photoshop. Most of the time you want to open that JPG in Adobe Camera Raw so you can use the sliders to process it. Use right click on a JPG file and select "Open in Camera Raw" from you options. That will open your JPG file in Adobe Camera Raw for processing. BTW, one day you will stop shooting Raw+Jpeg and just shoot in Raw. It's makes like a lot easier.

Agree, @Samarianosans with the big wheels on the Roller Derby. It is a nice bag. I love the light weight of the Advantage, though. It's so sweet.
