Alex Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 I was playing with the focusing and tracking of the camera and wonder why if I set the camera to AI Servo and select all sixty some af points the camera display shows the active af point to start focusing but it does not show how the camera is tracking movement by showing the red af points therefore I have no idea if the camera is really tracking the moving subject or not. My 7d does show it. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phule Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 <p>Isn't there a menu item for AF Display during focus? </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted June 14, 2012 Author Share Posted June 14, 2012 <p>I could not find one if there is. I know there is no sound confirmation up on focusing but it seems weird that I can't see the af points turning red as they track the moving subject.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phule Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 <p>http://www.atrero.com/articles/canon-eos-5d-mark-iii-af-settings/</p> <p>The above shows that there is a menu option for AF display. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted June 14, 2012 Author Share Posted June 14, 2012 That seems like a very educational page I'll go a read it in more dataill. I did go through those settings though and nothing addressed my issue so far. Thanks for the link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zml Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 <p>There also is a guide from Canon covering 5D3 & 1Dx AF configuration available from the Canon learning center pages. Good stuff!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
