I managed to download the previously pulled firmware and it was awesome on my camera however just upgraded to 1.1.1 and having major problems with my autofocus. I use BBF.
I mainly shoot birds in flight using the RF 100-500 lens. The panning does not stick to the subject despite changing the slider to -1, does not lock on in low contrast settings eg pale bird against the sky. I have never had this problem before and have not changed my BBF settings since getting the camera. Use three BBF buttons for AF and it worked like a dream before 1.1.1. I use zone 1 but the focus point changes to single point when tracking before stayed as a larger box over the bird.
i have taken back to factory settings and reloaded my individual camera settings to no avail.
Has anyone had a similar problem and how did you resolve. I am going on holiday in 10 days to photograph wildlife in Spain and upset about camera performance. Canon support said they had a couple of other people with similar issue, have tested their cameras and nothing wrong found. I have raised another support ticket but they haven’t got back yet. Thinking of changing camera system but would not have enough time to get to know before going away.
i have latest firmware on lens, have cleaned contact points. I am an accomplished amateur photographer so hope it’s not user error but can’t see why only just happening since update. Ideas welcomed as at the end of my tether.
