Question for someone to answer. I just received my Mk III this and I was reading the manual on "Silent Control" (pgs. 238, 244) The manual states that this is located in the 1st menu function (Camera 5), however, I only have 4 dots (or sub menus). Additionally, I placed it in "My Menu" and it is grayed out. I thought maybe the firmware was outdated, but it has the latest software. Am I missing something? Thanks to anyone that can answer that question.

Also, I can't seem to find the menu controls in order to set up back button AF. Again, am I missing something? Is this not available on the Mk III?

Thanks...Al

Ok I have been in this menu and it's already set to the AF-ON button. What I am trying to do is remove that AF-on function from the shutter button like with the 5D2? Can this be done? I'm used to the 1D where you have 4 options (0, 1, 2 & 3) where 2 removes the AF is removed from the shutter button and can be used in conjunction with Ai Servo as a quasi One Shot mode. A bit of a learning curve for me.

Thanks...Al

Same menu, first option - Shutter Button. Change "Metering and AF Start" to just "Metering".

Switch to Movie mode and you will find silent control in the menu.
