Mmmm i set it up in custom functions yet hitting the set button still does nothing, is it defaulted to other button or have i got to do something else..?
@deanpan2003 hi thank you deanpan for your advice. i followed exactly how you described yet still no joy. do you think maybe there is a problem with the camera?
I can't focus either. Logical if you think that the mirror is bouncing off to the AF sensors and for the liveview the mirror is turned up. I always refocus after turning the liveview off (of the tripod) and using the 2 seconds countdown to make the shot.
The default setting of live view is off. You need to enable the function.
Please
1) hit 'MENU'
2) hit left or right to change screen to 5th page/icon
3) you can find 'Live View function settings', hit up/down to change high light to the item, and select it.
4) to change the 'Live View shoot' to enable.

Strangely, even after setting either quick mode or live mode, it still doesn't autofocus for me. Is the shutter button still used for autofocus?

Using "*" button to autofocus. Please refer to my video.
