In Topic: 1DSIII * focus question
03 August 2008 - 03:32 PM
Alex,
Try this: Go to C. Fn IV.....switch C. Fn IV #1 from 0 to #2 which reads "metering star/meter + AF Start" then hit the set button..... then go to C. Fn IV #2 and switch the "AF-ON/AE lock button Switch" from disable to Enable and push the set button....I have been using mine like this for a few months and I think thats all that is required to use the * button W/O the shutter re-focusing.... if it dosent work let me know and i'll keep looking in my menu....

Hello !
i've just traded my old 1dII (housing and cam still for sale btw) for a 1dsmk3 in a seacam housing.
I really love this new cam on land, and i'm flying to the indian ocean in a few days to try the underwater setup
i have been used to * focus and then use the shutter just to take the photo, but on the mk3 camera,
When I set it to use the * button for focus, the focus function on shutter isn't deactivated, and the camera will sometimes re-focus when I recompose and press the shutter. THis might be very annoying for manual focusing.
i am sure i have set up something wrong
what are your C FN settings for this ?
Thanks
Alex
