Help, EOS R with Samyang 14mm f2.8 shutter won't fire

[andrew6071]

Hi, 

I'm feeling really stupid, and don't seem to be able to get my nice new EOS R to work with my samyang 14mm

I've got the camera set to manual focus, but can't get the shutter to work

"Check the settings for your custom modes."

Absolutely and almost all the time camera error or malfunction is user error not camera error. They really do exactly what you tell then to.

Sorry, I'm a video shooter, do I have to go into my custom settings and change a specific thing?

Sorry, for the delay.  Yes, you do.  Or, you could simply not use C3 mode.  Or, you could make the change, and then re-save the settings to C3, which is what I think is the best course of action.

I am saying make the change to "Release Shutter Without A Lens" setting, and then re-save to C3.
