Please excuse me but now knocking on a bit in years and need young brains for help.

Am I missing something here, can you set up HDR in one of the `C` modes or do you have to just select or deselect it when in(in my case Av) shooting normally. Something aint right, I can`t seem to set up HDR in C1, C2 or C3 or perhaps they are not intended for HDR.

Anymore info about HDR settings etc would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Dave

The C modes can be used for anything. You set up the camera the way you want OUTSIDE of the C modes (i.e., Av, Tv, whatever with any CFn or options you want), and then you record the current state under one of the C functions.

This is described on page 332 of your manual. But you invoke these steps from whatever mode, with whatever settings you want.

Are you sure that you can register in the C1, 2 and 3 when setting hdr, it seems that I can get into the C`s from the menu right up to I set up hdr and then they are greyed out.

It would seem that you can only set the camera up for HDR on my normal Av mode and then set up the camera for normal non hdr shooting on C1, 2 or 3.

Can someone confirm this please?

I don't have my 5D3 handy, but it's simply verifiable by just following the steps. I gave you even the page number. Again, you don't register IN the C1...3, you register them from OTHER modes.

This came up a few months ago and it can't be done for reasons only Canon knows.

Believe me, I`ve tried all ways and if hdr is selected you can`t select c1-3 to register but it sounds like you have done it so who knows!!! perhaps there is something amiss with my 5d3. To be honest even at my level I can normally fiddle around for a while and the penny drops but this setting eludes me.

Have you actually done it yourself Stan?

Well at least I`m not going crazy and it`s par for the course.
