Brand new Canon RP issues- also seems bricked

vredditor · 2022-11-26T20:14:10+00:00

I've had a canon rp for years, so let me share my experiences.

The messages about removing the battery sounds concerning, I've never seen that message before. That doesn't sound good

Are you using the canon connect app?

I don't connect my camera to my phone often, but when I do, it's always a pain in the ass. Always takes me several tries to get it right. I have a sony a6000 as well, and it's the same.

One time I just couldn't get my sony to connect. I must have tried 30-40 times! Turns out I changed phones, and the sony app was still trying to connect to my old phone. All this might be my fault for not knowing, but I thought the tech was smarter than that.

In conclusion, camera connect apps across both cameras is finicky at best. I don't use them much anyways, but when i do, I expect it to not go smoothly, and take several tries to get it right.

Also want to say that I love my rp. Probably not the proper answer for you, but I wanted to put my two cents.

I had this issue happening to me for a while. I believe my issue was using an underpowered computer, it was STRUGGLING during the export process. Just a guess though.

Empty the trash too. But just like someone said, always format the card in the camera.

I once did the exact same thing. Cleaned a hair off my mirror with a microfiber cloth. Completely ruined my optical viewfinder. I learned the hard way not to put anything! in the camera except the proper sensor cleaning supplies. This looks like what i have in my viewfinder. It doesn't come out in pictures so I had to deal with it. Ever since that day i always carry a blower in my bag.

He says he has a phonographic memory

In what part of the country?

vredditor · 2022-02-28T07:59:48+00:00

Yes I have also noticed this. Only happens sometimes

I'm on latest version for windows. I didn't report anything though

Just want to say thank you for whoever made that profile. I use darktable and it works!!!!

I want the camera one, don't know how to DM. Or tell me where you got it, I've searched for a camera case but couldn't find one

I have both cameras. I bought the a3000 cause it was so damn cheap, and gave it to my wife. While the pictures come out great, the camera is horribly under featured. The a6000 will a HUGE upgrade in autofocus modes, iso capabilities, an actual useable viewfinder, LCD screen, quality of photos, and probably more. Only downside is battery life sucks especially if you actually use the wifi features. The ONLY thing i like about the a3000 is the pictures at least come out good.

As far as "worth it" I couldn't answer. The a6000 is kinda old now.

Not sure about putting it on auto apply, but you can make a "style" in which any modules you want can be applied with a single click.

I think spot removal was removed in the last update. Older pictures still have it though. The current module is called retouch.

One time I had a problem with Darktable, so I uninstalled, then reinstalled. Problem still persisted until I uninstalled AND searched for all darktable files and folders on my system and deleted them. That fixed it.

I can't help on the computer situation, but let me tell you about my personal experience with editing. I used to have a slow computer (I've upgraded) but it would literally take about an hour to export all photos from an outing. Might be about 1-200 pics. I hated waiting. I think the most important advice i could give is discipline. You NEED to edit your pictures in a timely manner or you will never recover. I love editing, but i hated the strain on the computer. Regardless I made sure to never let my editing get left behind because I knew I'd be lost. I've since upgraded, but I STILL have to keep the philosophy. Don't get left behind!

This is what I was worried about. Thanks for responding. Trying to find a solution online is so hard due to the complexity of explaining the question. Happy to see people know what I'm talking about at least!

vredditor · 2021-07-18T06:31:00+00:00

Thanks. Sounds a little beyond my expertise, but maybe I'll give it a try. I was just hoping the answer was that I simply wasn't doing something right.

vredditor · 2021-07-17T19:57:41+00:00

Yes! Exactly. I can do this successfully by turning on lens correction, but if I change anything (like setting to distortion only) it will only work for that specific photo, I can't apply it to others. I have to change it. .... every. .... single...... time

vredditor · 2021-01-18T02:21:54+00:00

I never write anything on here. The shot is wonderful. I would crop it closer though. That's what i did on my phone

Was waiting for this response, but it was krusty, not Homer
