7DMkII_Back Button Focus Question

https://www.youtube.co​m/watch?v=y2yz-wrZYCI

In the above video, starting at 5:29, she describes setting the AF-ON button as single point AF and one of the other back buttons as all points AF --- she describes it much better than I can.

I have done a bit of searching to see if this capability is possible with the 7DMkII, but I am not finding anything.

Is it possible to configure the 7DMkII to behave as she describes ?

Thanks for reading and all help is appreciated.

Yes,
The place to set this up is in the Custom Controls menu,
Camera icon to the right, 3rd tab, down at the bottom.

If you already have AF ON set up the way you want, use the * button for your second set up.
You can set it to AF Start, then press the INFO button to set the details.

Possibly a better use of this button is to set the "Hail Mary" set up to the * button.
Here you need to register a complete set of camera settings that will activate when the * button is pressed. I use a fall back sort of emergency set up with this *. As part of that set up, it DOES use all af points as opposed to whatever I have set up on AFON at the time, which is usually single af point with expansion on.

Thanks ! I have just now taken time to check this out; although, I was only sitting in the kitchen and didn't snap any shots.

I set the * button to behave as she described in the video; at least I am fairly certain that I did.

While I was messing around, I checked out another puzzlement that had been worrying me = I already knew that, with our T3/1100Ds, with back-button focus set up, switching the mode dial to either of the full auto settings would negate back-button focus and return focus to the shutter button = handy when having someone else take your picture.
With the 7D and 7DMkII being somewhat of a "professional" camera, and the fact that they don't even call it full auto, but Scene Intelligent Auto or somesuch, I was worried that switching to this auto mode might not negate back-button focus ----- I just now investigated and was glad to discover that the auto setting does indeed negate back-button focus.

Please explain this "Hail Mary" set-up a bit more in detail.

The 7DII -- even if you have set up Back Button Focus -- will go back to Shutter Button focus when in Green Box mode; it goes back to the BBF setting when you exit Green Box mode.
