G7X Auto Focus Beep LOW

[harleymhs]

Hey Guys, I have a G7X ... Ive noticed when I half press the shutter button to auto focus, the auto foucs BEEP is LOW. Very low. I have all the volume settings to MAX and it seems the 1st press is OK then they get lower and lower where you can harly hear the auto focus beep. Anyone else hear of this issue ? Thanks in advance..

The volume settings probably do not affect the Beep, just video playback.  If it starts out OK, then gets lower and lower, does that mean that the Beep is somehow able to reset back to normal?

If would be weird for the volume of the Beep to change.  No idea comes to mind as to what could cause that to happen.  Make sure your finger is not blocking the speaker.  Some of the continuous focusing and shooting modes may actually disable the Beep, too.

I thought it only beeps twice till it is in focus and then no more beeps?

it DOES! Not the problem. The problem is VERY LOW VOLUME on the BEEP !

One of the greatest difficulties you will confront while catching quick moving subjects is understanding that one impeccable casing when the subject is in center and situated precisely where you need them. With a couple of changes to the camera settings on your 6D, you can defeat these difficulties. We should now discuss drive modes and AF (self-adjust) modes.
