nice composition but you might want to keep the highlights in check with the histogram when shootinghow you finding your new camera kevin?

 

its quite a bit different to the 80d but live and learn thanks for the tip

 

if you use the historgam in the evf or the screen, which ever you use to shoot with all you need to do is stop the shaded area on the histogram from touching the right hand side of the grid, if the shaded area touches it the camera is recording pure white highlights which cant be adjusted in edit

 

What exposure mode do you normally use?

I had the camera on full auto I usually use f2.8

 

on the M50 i found the full auto modes to ramp up the iso to crazy highs in the first instance, the P mode was the first 'auto' mode that gave some amount of control without getting too much into full manual
with the full auto modes they completely ignored the iso cap you can put on the iso from the menu, P mode was restricted with this which is probably were your images are taking a hit Kevin, full auto modes will run the iso up even in bright daylight where they not needed.

give P mode a try with a iso cap of 3200 or 1600,

 

thanks will give that a go

 

I am just trying to get my head around the settings that you are using that cause some of your images to have the highlights blown out. I am assuming that you are using your RP. The command dial you have set to "P"? What do you have the ISO set to? If we are able to get the exposure correct, you will have more detail in the brighter white parts of this sort of image.

Let us know, and we will see if we can help you out with this.
