Canon 5D Focus Button
Does Not Stay in The Right Place

Canon 5D Mark IV  Manual Select: Zone AF

Canon 5D Mark IV Manual Select: Zone AF

"On my Canon 5D IV I have been using the …...Manual Select: Zone AF.

I have had no problem with it. But now, for some reason, it is not working right.

When I move it to the right or left and then press the focus button it only shows the point back in the center, why? "


Hi Colin,

Sorry you're having an issue setting the zone focusing area on your 5D Mark IV.
1. Can I assume you're remembering to hit the set button once you've chosen your desired setting.

2. Have you tried a factory reset?

Let me know,
Thanks,
Bruce
