Hi everyone,
I have spent hours trying to find an answer to this online, with no luck. I'm wondering if anyone on this forum will be able to help me out. My problem is this:
My 5D3 will not use a manually selected AF point for focusing. I can select a point that is off center (anywhere in the 61 points), and it shows up in the viewfinder, but as soon as I press focus (back button) the camera just uses the center point. I have tried multiple combinations of different AF points, tracking cases, AF types (single point, expanded, etc.), and different lenses. I have tried it in AV and Manual, and with one shot and ai focus.
Does anyone have an idea as to what is wrong? Am I just missing something basic here? Thank you in advance for any info.
