What a waste of a post, nothing to do with the OP question about AF on the 5D 3, did you get it? AF on the 5D 3.
How do you think posting \"what I use on the 5D 2\" would possibly help the OP\'s question?
Amazed.
Thanks for venting...
I posted that after seeing that a full week has passed after the OP asked the question without a single reply and that he had returned with the second \"bump\" post in an attempt to get some response. I thought that perhaps it would be useful to share what I do know in the absence of any information from anyone who owns the 5D3.
I think that provided two kinds of value:
1. A good number of the decisions about how to set up a camera for BIF are camera-independent. In other words, the basic concepts that apply on a 5D2 (or other DSLR) can also be usefully applied on the 5D3.
2. After I posted my reply, a lot of other forum members saw the post and did chime in with information specific to the 5D3.
Your \"didn\'t you get it? AF on the 5D 3\" rant is a way off track. I did get it, which is why I began my post with:
gdanmitchell wrote: I do not have a 5D3, but since no one has replied I\'ll at least tell you what I use on a 5D2. I may mention a bit more than just AF settings.
Now, as to your \"offering,\" first you stepped into a situation that you clearly don\'t understand and second you have offered nothing that could possibly be of any value to the OP. I\'ve got a hunch that the OP just might have found a bit more value in what I wrote than in your bad-tempered bleating.
