Setting the camera on some random settings and expecting great results isn't going to work. The biggest problem I see is the posterization around the boat in teh camera image. The phone image looks good.

Thanks for all the thoughtful and helpful replies. This was a failed experiment on my part YEA USER ERROR! A couple of things worth mentioning. I was just playing around while sitting having coffee on the vacation home pool deck when I took those shots so the subject wasn’t good to begin with. I also had a DUH moment. I used Canon Camera Connect to transfer the file from the R6 to the iPhone. Here’s the DUH part, it only transferred a 1mb jpeg to the phone which I then uploaded to UHH. The iPhone photo is 12mp. Normally I would have exported the photo to LR as a RAW file. I have had success in the past with the R6 with quality output and normally process thru LR. Two of those photos from the past of a visit from the zoo are now hanging on a wall in my home. Those wood panels are 20x30. With that said I’ll write it again it was failed experiment on my part.

Did you maybe consider if you had the R6 set correctly, the resulting image would be better? From what I read in your posting, you're the one who set the R6 to overexpose the image.
Originally I had not set it correctly. I'm not sure whey I did not set it correctly because I've had some great shots with the R6. Two of those shots were done at a zoo and were so good they were suitable for enlarging. Those 2 shots are now hanging in a music room in my home.

Nah, I don’t take it as being harsh my skin is thicker than that Chg_canon I’ve read enough of your posts so I know you know what you are talking about.
What f stop would would you use?
I understand ISO is high and could be lower.
What I find interesting is that in the past I’ve had great results. I think I may have watched too many You Tube videos and messed with my settings.
Tomorrow morning same time same place I’ll take more shots.

I have an iphone 14 on order too. I’m thinking I’ve got this high end R6 and out of the camera the iPHone looks better. Very discouraging. I have however made some nice enlargements from a zoo visit last year with the Canon.

I’m including 2 photos from a vacation we are on in a rental home. They are both of the same palm tree. I like the photo better from the Iphone 13 and am not really happy with the straight out of the Canon r6. If I ran the Canon photo thru Lightroom I know I can improve it. Would you do anything different with the settings?
Here’s the settings for the Canon r6 24-105, RF lens, 50mm ISO 250, f/4, 1/2500. I used landscape as the picture style in AV.
For the iPhone 13 Pro Max 37mm, iso 50, f/1.5, 1/1412.
The Canon is the first photo the second the iPhone.

I tried to set a pickup for my local Apple store, but it wouldn't let me. Said it would be shipped here Oct 10-17. I entered my carrier, but wonder if I'm going to have to go to an ATT store to program the electronic sim card.
Mine is coming October 17th to 24th. Tony Northup had some interstings to say:

I will be ordering the iPhone 14 Pro Max but will probably wait a few weeks and that's only because I'l be awy from home and won't be here when it is delivered.

I've never really understood the monarchy, but I have to say that this is a very sad day indeed. To quote my wife, "The last vestige of civility just died."
Right on with your comment and the one from your wife.

Try other camera shops. I have ordered and received 2 R7s since July 1. Hunt's Camera, Campus Camera, Bedford's Camera would be worth a try; get on their lists. The smaller shops get smaller shipments, it is true, but they also have smaller demand.

Hunts seems to have them in stock. It's where I bought my R6.

Thanks I downloaded the free 3 tutorials and based on what I've watched so far it's worth purchasing the entire Canon R6 series.

A gun and hopefully a subscription to USCCA in case you have to use it and need legal assistance.
