M3, focus peaking and the M-Fn button.
1

Hi all

A newbie here, have a question about the M3, I use almost exclusively manual lenses (Minolta, CanonFD, Konica and Pentax m42), I previously had the EOS-M (with ML installed) but found focus peaking a little crude using this function under ML thus the purchase of the M3 (with EVF-DC1 viewfinder), I find this a great combination so it has more or less replaced my use of the EOS M and also my EOS 70D, Focus peaking works really well but I would have liked to map the focus peaking change colour function (Red, Yellow, Blue) to the M-Fn button ( each click choosing the next colour) but I have yet to find a manner of doing this, perhaps I am missing something, is this not possible,?

Perhaps there is another method that does not require using the menu system, this is quite fast, and I am used to it now but would like to change focus peaking colours without having to revert to the menu each time, any ideas or tips?
