Hi all, I'm forcing a problem with my 750D AF. Contrast AF in liveview works OK, but phase AF is unrealible. Sometimes, it works ok, but sometimes, pictures are soft or even totaly out of focus. Same settings, lens... and I see no connection. It just has better or worse days.

Do you have similar experiences? Would you consider to do nothing/try to repair-replace parts/buy 250D or 850D/buy M6II with reduction (good contrast AF)? Thank you

All of my Rebels was/is like that with certain lenses (I had/have EF 50mm F1.8, EF50mm F1.8, EFS 18-55mm STM, EFS 18-135mm, EF 28-135mm).

Send the Camera and the lens to Canon and ask them to calibrate it. Or better yet, buy a camera with MFA or buy mirrorless instead.
