Hi Marc:Jack, is that the camera with multiple AF points? If so tell us about that feature. How spread out are the points? Are they all cross sensor types? Inquiring minds need to know
Yes there are three AF points, you can select any single one or all. They are not very spread out across the sensor; they reside at each edge and center of the central AF patch. I do not know if all three are cross type or just the center, but AF is a lot better. To put the new AF in perspective, this thing AF's almost as well in low light as the last generation Canon 1's and better than my 5D did, and is as fast as my 5D was with non-USM focus Canon lenses -- this is a serious improvement over the AFD2...
The AF button thing is killing me though! I just cannot shoot in my "normal" fashion with the current configuration options :angry:
Cheers,

I mentioned there was a lot of smoke. Northern CA has several fires burning, the closest of which is over 150 miles away from me. Here is what the normally crystal clear view from my cabin deck looks like now -- a few of you have seen that view, so will know how scuzzy this really is. What's weird is the smoke has traveled so far it does not smell like smoke any more...
This shot is straight out of the camera, converted in C1 with straight daylight WB and no added adjustments. Phase body in Av mode, new 80mm lens at f8, no exposure comp. (The new metering handles difficult light extremely well!)

Seems like you just sent the 203FE in for the configuration change. How long exactly did it take as I am going to have mine done as well.

Guy is awfully quiet, must be going crazy taking pix with his new iphone
I suspect his new iPhone got bricked and he is now without that connectivity.Guy is awfully quiet, must be going crazy taking pix with his new iphone
:wtf:Hope it is not that bad, but several hours into this process, and things are still not working, so I suspect if he was even able to get a new phone, it is not being able to be activated for use yet.

Have phone back at home but dead in the water . ITunes server is down, what a waste of time
Guy,
You only need to change this in Manual mode. In Aperture or Shutter priority, both the front wheel and back wheel do the identical things. I have my AFDII loaner set up with the change, so that the front wheel is aperture and back is shutter also. I'm just so used to that from Nikon and the Hassy. On the new AFDIII, it looks like you change Custom Function 11 to Option 1.
Best,
Ray
