EOS Bodies - For Stills / Re: Canon 1DX - AF Micro Adjustment reset when I turn off the camera
« on: July 17, 2012, 04:29:11 PM »
This problem was driving me batty for a few days.
Canon tech support was not able to provide any helpful information during our extended email correspondence.
In frustration, I just started trying all the various settings. I tried "clear all" in "Adjust by lens", then backed out of the menu and shut the camera down. Then I went into "All by same amount" set a value, backed out of the menu and shut the camera down. Then I went into "All by same amount" hit "clear all", backed out the menu and shut the camera down. Then I tried "Disable", backed out and shut the camera down. Finally I went back to "Adjust by lens", tried a different lens first (24L II instead of 300 2.8 II) and it worked. The camera is now accepting the values I enter for various lenses. (I am entering the serial number first, then setting the value.)
Without a specific fix, I'm afraid it's not really helpful in allowing you to solve the problem. My frantic button pushing experience does show, however, that there is some way of getting the camera to accept and retain individual lens values.
