Canon R5 R5 Newbie and User Guides

[Joanne]

I'm really excited about using my new (arrived yesterday) R5. I've been a Canon shooter for a long time, but I'm wondering if anyone has found a good "getting started" resource for the R5. So far, most seems familiar, but some new features are going to take some time. Any thoughts?

Not necessarily a "users guide" but one technique I always use with a new camera is to download the users manual to my cell phone.
Its nice to have the manual with me at all times and it takes up no room in my camera bag!

I did the same on day one. The user's manual is like a mini Guttenberg Bible! lol

Great idea. The R5 manual includes Spanish and French and is about an inch thick. Too big to carry. Will download today!

I will have to see if its available to my apple product.... there use to be an app that you paid for the individual manuals

If you download the manual and add it to my files it will be available across all your Apple products, i have done this and can open on my Macbook Pro, Ipad and Iphone.
