how does BBF work when using a remote shutter release such as the canon RC-6? do i have to pre-focus the camera, or does the remote shutter override the BBF setting?

i believe my camera is set to AE/AF so the shutter button doesnt focus at all. should i switch to default when using remote?

thanks

You have to set things back to default in order to focus using a remote shutter release.

- Eric S.: My Birds/Wildlife (external link) (7D MkII/5D IV, Canon 10-22 f/3.5-4.5, Canon 24-105L f/4 IS, Canon 70-200L f/2.8 IS MkII, Canon 100-400L f/4.5-5.6 IS I/II)
"The easiest way to improve your photos is to adjust the loose nut between the shutter release and the ground."
