Hello, I have recently purchased a Canon EOS RP & RF 24-105mm F4-7.1 IS STM lens. I am trying to learn how to focus using the manual focus mode but am not having any success. The lens has "Focus Control" with two graduations however I'm unable to manually focus the camera. When I try & take a photo of clear sky, there is no response in pressing the camera shutter button. I am aiming to learn how to take Milky Way type photos but haven't had any success so far so any advice would be greatly appreciated please, Thanks and regards. Terry
You should be able to turn on live view and focus with the display zoomed in. That said, if your shooting the milky way I would imagine you could just put the lens at infinity for focus for the same results.
Hey Terry, Is this a lens where you need to go into the menu to enable manual focusing, and then that enables you to use the focus ring at the front of the lens to manual focus? Gary
Hi Gary, yes, that is correct, it just took me a long time to find the correct option in the menu. Regards. Terry
