    I have just purchased Canon EOS R6 with a RF 24-105mm lens and I am now teaching myself on its all functions. I am looking at using manual settings in more of photography in the future. This is my first mirrorless & full frame camera, i am finding the electronic viewfinder is very bright and the fold out flip screen is brilliant. I can't wait to get out on my first photo shoot with my mate to really test the camera out.
    I recently used it as a webcam shooting a funeral service and i now need to purchase a AC power adapter to avoid the camera running out of power. If anyone has a recommendation for a adapter please respond.

    Welcome to the forums Rodney!

    We have some R series owners that may have experience with power adapters here. I think the official canon adapter and dc coupler is just under $150 online USD, My two cents are if you can use the official canon accessories, last thing you want to do is void a camera warranty on an expensive camera using a cheaper knock off by chance it malfunctions and damages the camera.
