  • aw your cat is so nice! Purrs so much! I am having some trouble trying to get the focus right on video (I tried both AF Live and AF face detection but as soon as my kitten starts moving fast it all goes downhill...)

    Takes awful long to refocus each time(and that terrible noise!!)

    Do you have any tips for shooting crazy kitten? Manual focus sounds great but I am a newbie and my eye sight is not the most reliable.

  • @nikkinghk Manual focus is the best way to focus on DSLR. You can get a lens with a USM motor, it will be faster and quieter. However, what you can do to avoid focusing all the time to increase your f. number lets say to f8. though, you will have to increase your ISO for that.

  • damn that's loud and annoying... is there another way to have it auto focus without it being all loud and what not?

  • @2isTheNew1 Attaching a USM lens may help.

  • @momoz88 Thanks for your advise. I will definitely try it out :)

  • Sounds alot easier to adjust aperture and ISO than trying to refocus every 10 seconds. Thanks for the tips.I will definitely try that first and try learn to manual focus sometime. Thanks man. Aww I have to say it again your cat is soooo nice!

  • Lol that cat wanted you to bug off. I think it was saying get that noisy thing away from me. lol

  • Lol that cat wanted you to bug off.

  • @AllUrUtubeRbelong2me If you are using a canon compatible lens you will get focus confirmation through the optical view finder when shooting stills. However, I am not sure if the camera can confirm the focus while shooting video.

  • @momoz88 About the manual focusing....I have a question. Is there some kind of visual or audible indicator when you are in focus, like a green or red light, or do you just have to rely on your eye to decide if you are in focus? And same question for still images.
