Re: M100 & legacy manual focus lens

This setting for "C.Fn II" only comes out when the dial mode is set to Movie Auto Exposure mode initially.

Although manual focus will work in Movie Auto Exposure mode, the best mode is inside 'creative assist' mode (the middle dial setting). But you need to setup the following first :-

Once entered into the Creative Assist mode, on the upper right *left* of the screen icon, press and select any one of M / AV / TV or P mode for best manual focus shooting. This way, you can get focus peaking feature in combination with zoom in (live view) for fine focus tweaking.

Edit : and you need to further set focus peaking 'on' (default is off). Phew.. so many levels..
