Protect your rights by adding copyright information to every picture you take. This can be added with your image editor, but it's easier to configure your Canon 5D Mark III to automatically add this information each time you take a picture. Learn how to add copyright information in the menu so that each picture you take will be protected and you never have to worry about forgetting to add it later.
Amongst all the other metadata that's stored with your image, there's also a copyright…field, where you can put your name, and copyright information.…You can add this metadata using your image editor, but you can also configure your camera…so that copyright gets added to every single image that you shoot.…Having your copyright included with your images provides you a pretty good amount of legal…protection, should you find that someone has used an image without your permission.…You can enter your copyright information directly on the camera by going into the menu system,…and going over here to the very last setup menu. There is an entry called Copyright information.…
By going here, I get a few options.…I can't right now display copyright info, because I have not entered any.…I can enter my name, I can enter my copyright details, or I can delete everything.…I am going to go in here to Enter author's name,…and I've got two fields here. Right now this is showing me my name, but I don't have anything in there.…
