p.1 #1 · 7D Custom Function setup ?


Custom function question. Just picked up a 7D and going through the setup and there's a lot to learn. I spent some time with the camera and manual last night and can't figure out how to set the the following:

I want the "AF-On" button to activate autofocus with automatic AF point selection and at the same time, have the "*" button available to activate autofocus with a manually selected point. All the while I want the shutter button to activate metering only. This is how I had my 1 series bodies set and it allowed me to choose auto or manual (usually center) selected point by going between buttons.

I was able to set both buttons to activate focus, but can't seem to set them to the two different purposes.

thanks

Sounds like you are asking for a lot.

I had mk2 1 Series cameras set up that way a long time ago. It should be no problem for the 7D and 5D2.
