1Dx AI-Servo frame rate question

(1/5) > >>

Kevin Weinstein:
So, when I have the camera set to One Shot, I get 12 frames a second. 

But the second I change it over to AI SERVO, and hit the AF stop button (I have it custom set using the little star icon), the frame rate not only drops dramatically, but shoots 3 or 4 in a row, and then pauses, and then 3 or 4 in a row and pauses.

I have three 1Dx bodies here, and all do the same thing.

Anyone else notice this?

Thanks!

Viggo:
Mine doesn't do that at all. I would save the settings to a card, reset the camera to factory and try again.

charlesa:
Have you changed the number of frames it captures in one burst? It can be limited, mine is set to 20 in one burst for example.

Kevin Weinstein:
Where is that option or preference to change the number in one burst? 

I know One Shot preference is set to 12 which is the default.  I just don't understand why it captures 12, but the minute I out on the stop AF button to lock on, it drops to 3 frames a second or so.

It is really confusing.

I will try saving the settings, and the going back to default again and see if that fixes it.

Viggo, you don't list a supertele lens in your sig - do you have or did you rent one?  The OP's issue is with the AF Stop button, which is found only on the supertele lenses, AFAIK.

Kevin - the 'little star' that you assigned to LENS is AE Lock, does the same thing happen with AE Lock assigned to the AE Lock button on the camera?
