Two questions I used to know the answers to :)

Hi folks,

Brain fog tonight.

What does THIS do?

AND, I swear I recall there was a faster way to change shooting modes rather than the Mode button which i find inconvenient and withoiut mapping MfN to change those modes. Am I imagining that one?

Thanks.

OK, turns on Subject Tracking. Not intuitive

I recall there was a faster way to change shooting modes rather than the Mode button which I find inconvenient and without mapping M Fn to change those modes.

• Bob, what camera are you using?
  
  
• On the R5 (mk1 & mk2) the M Fn button can be used to move through the modes: C1—>C2—>C3.
  • One is not forced to scroll through the modes that aren't used.
  • It's the perfect way to restore exposure and drive settings to their defaults.
  • I am fully committed to using this feature. Brillant!!

Sorry - R3.

I did say "without mapping MfN to change those modes.", David. I use that for other things I find useful. Or more useful. I somehow think there was another way, but easily could be wrong.

It enables info - who doesn’t know that?

That is the only thing I really miss about my R5.
