Autofocusing and Canon 5D MkIII - dbamott - 05-11-2013

I´ve just bought a Canon 5D MkIII, but the camera will not autofocuse in any position than A+.

I´ve tried with my 24-70 mm and my 100-400 mm.

Also I cannot select any focusing points in the viewfinder :-(

The problem is the same.

Has anyone experienced the same problem and in tha case - how did you resolve it??

Thank yoy in advance.

A question just to get a clear picture... Is it your first Canon DSLR?

What do you mean with A+? And did you by any chance chnage settings that put the AF on a different button than the shutter button?

Did you read the manual on how to change focus points? Can you select focus points on the back LCD?

The same as what?
