mlevy Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 I've been having difficulties focusing when using video on a Canon T7. Sometimes the focus is correct, and other times I find when I review the video it is seriously out of focus. The video in question was captured with modest light with a shallow depth of field. Does anyone have any tips here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Katz Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 (edited) I have not used that camera, but as per DP Review, focus and focus tracking are more reliable using Live View than through the viewfinder https://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canon-eos-77d-review DP Review of the EOS 77, with the same AF system as the T7. Note that any AF system will be more challenged in lower light and shallow DOF will let AF errors be more noticeable.

mlevy Posted February 12 Author Share Posted February 12 The issue was that in low light it can take a while for the auto-focus to find its mark. You have to wait for it to beep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
