    1DX single point AF issue?

    I'm using single-point AF on my 1DX. When I try to move the point up a notch to focus a little higher the AF flashes back to the center point when I hit the focus button (using BBF.) Can anyone tell me what the heck is going on? I can't figure out how to fix it!

    300 2.8L lens cover fit question

    I have the old 300 2.8 L USM (the NON-IS) lens, and my question is - does the E-145C lens cover currently on sale for the 300 2.8L IS2 fit on my lens? Based on the numbers, the E-145C might fit but have a somewhat loose fit on my 300 2.8 NON-IS lens. Anyone tried? EF 300 2.8 L - lens cap...

    70-200 2.8L IS - making noises when IS on

    My 70-200 IS (mark I) has started making lightly funny noises with the IS on. Like a sort of moving part and then clicking into place noise. Everything still works fine but I'm concerned there could be trouble on the horizon. With the IS disabled the noise obviously isn't there. Is this a...

    50 1.4 dropped, no AF or MF

    I had my 50 1.4 in a soft canon bag and sadly dropped it on concrete at a gig the other night. upon looking at it everything looked Ok, but I could hear a little movement inside. I put it on my camera (6D) and got a couple of shots that seem like the glass inside is Ok but I could get no AF...
