My camera settings are set to default by Canon. I want to know what custom function allows the user to use * for AF instead of the shutter button. Any suggestions.

C.Fn-04 = 1 (AE lock with shutter button) or 3 (AE when shot is taken).

Got it! Let me ask you this, do you prefer (AE lock with shutter button) or (AE when shot is taken)? What do you recommend?

I prefer the exposure to be determined when the picture is taken so I use C.Fn-04 = 3.

Okay! I'll make the adjustment and see how things work out.
