So I recently went on a holiday and took my camera along.
all was going well until about a few days before the new year and i noticed my camera no longer beeps when it finds focus(it still focuses fine though).
I've checked in all the menus and tried resetting everything but it still hasn't fixed it, odd thing is but...when i autofocus, and then switch to manual focus, it beeps. if I use full auto it beeps, but any other mode won't beep when it has found focus.
I have tried different lenses and all the usual stuff etc etc but still no luck.

any ideas on what could be causing this issue and how to fix it?

I was thinking that maybe the little bird that comes inside the camera was dead. Do you feed it frequently? :)


It's not a photo until you print it! :cool:
