Anybody else have this combo and having issues with the lens not responding sometimes? Seems like it is when the image is way off focus the lens ( or camera ) freezes up.

I have that problem with my MkII. I notice it when I try to focus on something very close when the lens is set to far away. Bob Palermini

windpig Chopped liver  More info | Apr 01, 2012 22:08 | #6 Do you have the lens limiter switch in the correct position. Would you like to buy a vowel?

Apr 01, 2012 23:16 | #8 peteg1 wrote in post #14193663  My 5D III/100L IS work great together but I had the same problem with my 7D until I changed one of the AF settings “Lens Drive When AF is Impossible” was set to off so the lens didn’t seek focus. Hope this helps. +1. this is what i did too. because the lens has a pretty hard time focusing especially if you are at infinity on the lens and you are trying to focus on something near MFD.
