Auto focus problem Canon 70 d in T, A, M, P mode

Help, please?

Auto focus on my Canon 70 d does not work in P, T, A and M mode, everything works perfectly in Auto, CA and SCN mode.

I have to press the AF button - it focus when you take a picture. But if I use mode live view, that autofocus does not work normally.

I think that by pressing the shutter button in halfway should always begin by focusing, also for the T, A, M and P mode?

I tried to restore factory settings, but it does not help a thing.

Y at - there somewhere a setting I should change, I think bad or my camera does not work properly?

Thanks for any help!

Regard, Gerard

Hi Gerard,.

The 70 d (like most Canon DSLRs) has customization options to assign the button (s) perform the function of auto focus (AF). Looks like these options have been changed from their original default settings.

To see if this is the case, check the settings of the C.Fn III on your camera. See pages 383-386 of your manual. You can see that your shutter button is more set to start AF perfom.

You can reset those C.Fn III - 4 setting default original settings by pressing the "trash icon" while in the menu screen shown in step 3 on page 383. See note in blue at the bottom of this page.

And note that the option 'Clear all camera settings', found on page 61 of the manual does not reset the custom functions. This can therefore explain why your restore settings try earlier did not help.

  • random auto focus problem Canon EF-S 18-55

    Hello

    I have worked with Canon EF-S 18-55 IS NO Lenes and have found a problem that I just can't seen to solve. The problem is I get autofocus, but at times it will not focus. I changed the card with a known good, engine Assembly, contacts with good looking for work units but not the contact Strip because they seem good.

    The Assembly moves freely with little resistance. I've also seen this problem on the IS versions too but especially on versions IS.

    I'm looking for any other suggestions that could solve the problem.

    Well I finally found out what the problem was and fixed 3 Lenes.

  • Infinity focusing problem on my SX700

    I always infinity focusing problems with my SX700.  I have the yellow box indicating that the image will be sweet if taken.  This happens on at least 1 other point cannon and shoot that I know.  I can focus to several hundred feet but not 10 000.  Does anyone else have this problem?  I am at my end and ready to jump ship to another manufacturer if I can't get to the bottom of this.  I never had this problem with my G-10.  Could this be a problem with extreme telephoto lens Canon point and shoot models?

    I have a Canon PowerShot SX150is and a Canon PowerShot G12, and I get the same questions. Here's what I learned. The problem with any long zoom point and shoot at the tele end is the amount of contrast detection that occurs to allow the development. With shorter zooms, the atmosphere is less dense, but more zooms to detect the density of the air. This is particularly noticeable on days with higher humidity levels, but would not have noticed the days of low humidity very dry. So the blur warning you get. The camera is not getting enough contrast to narrow the focus. No matter what brand you use, if the camera uses contrast detect focus, it will be the result. Not all use contrast detect, so be sure to check before you choose "deserting a ship."

    I would keep the ISO as low as possible, and if you can manually set the focus to infinity, it should help. But this has always been a sore spot with me on cameras Canon PowerShot with how long and complex manual focus is. Hope this helps you understand what may be the problem you are experiencing.

  • Using the auto focus with a tripod

    What is the recommendation for the use of the auto focus with a tripod and remote wireless shutter release?

    It depends on the subject. If autofocus could "fool" by distracting elements (i.e. shooting a bird in a tree where branches could 'steal' the update) and then proceed to the manual. If AF would work pocket so no reason to switch to MF.

    If the lens has Image stabilization to consult the manual of the lens. Some require IS be turned off when on a tripod.

  • Auto focus does not work in the creative modes

    I use EOS 600 d for the past three years. I was and I am not able to auto focus in creative modes. I actually thought that there is no installation of the auto focus in creative modes. Only when I attended a workshop in Chennai yesterday, I got to know the automatic update facility is available in creative modes too.  I tried with three lenses and in all cases autofocus does not work in the creative modes only. In basic mode, it works well. I browsed the forum and found to RESET. How a reset should be done? Someone please explain. I can't find any updated firmware for 600 d.

    Thank you, Mr.Waddizzle. I did a reset according to your advice and now AF works in the creative modes also. Thank you.

  • LifeCam Cinema - focus problem

    Hello
    I just brought a lifecam cinema.  It runs on Windows 32 - bit XP, SP3, with the latest Microsoft webcam software.

    My Lifecam Cinema appears to not be auto focus.  I have 3 feet of the webcam, and I blurred and imprecise.  The objects in the room are also blurred.  The only thing that is developed is if I take an object and that it hold about 3 inches from the webcam.  The focus seems to be right in front of the lens.

    I tried to play with the setting of development under the microsoft Lifecam software.  I tried it with the balance of the development of setting 'auto '.  I tried to uncheck the auto and manually move the Focuser scroll bar and hit apply.  No difference in short - everything behind a few inches from the lens is blurry.

    I tried different intensities.  I tried to move the scene and set the webcam in another XP box.  No improvement.

    It is possible the unit I have is defective and not auto focus?

    Thank you.

    Just to close the loop - Yes, the webcam was defective.  I got a replacement and it wears very well.  So, the first auto focus issues.  It's just to help those who watch this upward in the future.

  • Why my auto focus does not work like Julieann K does in his tutorial

    I tried to use the auto focus selection, as shown in the tutorial by julianne k and it does not work.

    After reading your response, I realized that my photo file was huge, so I reduced the entire file significantly down for something like 8 x 10 and it worked fine.  My account was just too big. I tired of small files, and the update worked.  the file may not just be very big. I thought that after you suggested I go to 8-bit. Thanks David

  • Focus problems

    Hello

    I spent a lot of time trying to figure out what was causing a weird problem that is a few clicks away from buttons are ignored. After doing some tests I ran into components compiled Clip. If I remove them from the library that the update works as I expect. The problem is that I don't want (and don't have the time to) create or find replacements for all of the Compiled clips I used in this project.

    Does anyone know how to overcome this problem without removing these components?

    I've created a simple example to show you guys the problem we have here.

    If you compile the code and run the application (slider.fla and problemCompiledClip.fla), then click on in the textField (to set the focus to the subject), you will see the focus remains in the textField component when you click the buttons. I don't want this behavior, I would like the update in the... invisible buttons.

    Now, if you go to the library (on problemCompiledClip.fla) and delete component ProgressBar which is not yet used, the behaviour you will get is that I want to achieve. This is the average, even if the focus is in the textField and then you click any button, the object disappears from the textField object. Who do ALL the events of clicks in the buttons of her captured.

    If I wasn't clear on the problem, let me know.

    Thank you very much
    See you soon

    I use components if I am unable to get detailed help. but I know that this problem has been discussed in this forum and, I think, using the component development manager led to a resolution of the problem.

    Try this forum looking for something like focus problems. most of the people who encounter this problem do not realize it is a problem of component and if the components are not mentioned in their section of wire or a subtopic.

  • Focus problems with Rebel T3i. It will not be in manual or auto focus point. It's not about camera lens

    My camera will not focus. Not only the autofocus. I can't he focus even if I put manual focus.

    The image is still blurry.

    First I thought it was the lens I had but I tried with several, and the problem is the same.

    Any ideas what could be the problem?

    Thank you

    Have you checked the viewfinder diopter?  , It will be not clear even on the manual focus, and it happens with all your lenses makes me think that it is possible that the dial tiny bit right there on the eyepiece was implemented accidental market. The dial control what you see in the viewfinder, not something to do with the focus lens. The diopter is adjustable so that those who need glasses can see things through the viewfinder.  If everything still seems blurry even when the camera thinks he's focused it is generally just that little diopter got hit accidentally.

    IFIT is not this, then perhaps your screen focus got shifted.

  • The rebels x3i (600 d) auto focus not working not not in Zone creation mode. Works very well in the basic modes.

    I bought a refurbished Canon Canon x3i after my extended warranty Ritz camera became useless and my xTi (400 d) died last summer. The camera has been excellent until very recently.

    About a week or two ago the autofocus stopped working. I think it all started when I decided to try the objective of refurbished Canon 50mm 1.8 that I bought on the internet. He has not worked for that lens, and has not worked in the design area since.

    There is an asterisk (*) in the lower left corner of the viewfinder. It is an indicator of progress of AE. There is no active focus. Sometimes, the nine of them will be light, but it doesn't mean anything.

    Based on responses from other posts on the forum, I tried different objectives EOS (I have two rebel film cameras) and I tried the LiveView. The same problem. I can live with the situation, but, obviously, I'd rather not.

    Naturally, the manual focus works fine.

    The pins on the camera look and feel fine - no elbows or broken bits. The pins look good, too, even the 50mm lenses.

    (I have not contacted Canon, yet, because the after-sales guarantees are usually 30 to 90 days, but I will contact them tomorrow)

    I don't think that you have found the free camera.  You MUST clear all settings.  Looks like you have memorization of commissioning.

                public int moveFocus(int amount, int status, int time) {
                    lastIndex = getSelectedIndex();
                    invalidate(lastIndex);
                    return super.moveFocus(amount, status, time);
                }

  • window focus problems

    Hello fellow travelers... Since the update to 10.11.5 I have problems with windows does not come to the front when you click on to and does not come to be the focused window. No left or right mouse clicks don't work in the window. I have to close and reopen a window to make it sensitive. I also get error messages stating that the audio files cannot be changed because they are read-only. I read in the Infolog & right of authorization user and administrator. The files are on an external drive and were available in os 10.9.5. Any ideas?

    See if start-up aid.

    Stop your Mac. Start with the SHIFT key is pressed. This will start in Safe Mode, with all extensions turned off. Safe mode is slow to comlete, so give it time, he checks a lot of staff. If it works fine in Safe Mode, restart normally.

  • Auto focus stopped working all of a sudden

    Hello dear community,

    my English is not that good, I'm sorry.

    Here's my problem:

    a few days earlier, I wanted to take a quick snapshot of a nice car but the camera was only in black, I tried to get to the front camera (it took a while), but it worked perfectly fine. I restarted, hard I restarted, reset etc after that I dropped. Somedays later, my camera was working again except the autofocus on the back and the front camera (!). I tried everything like unlock the AF lock by pressing the screen about 2 or 3 seconds until it said AF-unlocked. > > > Does not.

    There is no damage of fall or something like that. There is no dust or other dirt on the camera back, he just used focusing. I think that the update to 9.2.1. the cause of the problem of camera. I have this iPhone for about 2 or 2.5 years and the camera never stopped working like that.

    I hope you can help me.

    Greetings from the Germany.

    To make sure that it is not software related, that the phone back to factory settings, without using backups and test the camera.

  • Driver problem Canon irc 2880i with El Capitan

    Hello

    I have a MacBook Pro of the retina with ESES El Capitan 10.11.2 and a printer Canon irc 2880i.

    I tried to download the drivers from http://it.software.canon-europe.com/products/0010365.asp , but many of them are too old to be installed on my Mac, and the only one that can be installed has this problem: the CMA recognizes the printer and he knows also the levels of toner, all seems fine, but when you print something the printer does not print anything. On the printer screen, it says 'NG' instead of 'OK' with an error code #853. The Mac detects any errors.

    PLEASE, HOW CAN I SOLVE THIS PROBLEM?

    There is no such thing as ESES.

    It's called Mac OS X for Mac.

    iOS is for iPod Touch, iPhone and iPad.
