    Hi,

    How can I get the 61 AF points to display on Av/M/Tv modes ? - and show which points focus ?

    I can either have the center point displayed and this is all that focuses, OR all 61 points

    but it appears they all focus , but in reality its just the center that focuses.

    Like in A* mode (ok we dont see all 61 point) but it's possible to see different areas around the

    whole AF area being focused as you half press the shutter.

    In the AF menu i have set Selectable AF point to all 61.

    AF Point display during focus tried them all , but Selected(focused) or Selected (pre-AF,focused) still just shows the center focusing ??

    And I did RTFM !! :P

    You need to hold down the 'set' and 'rate' buttons at the same time until you hear three short beeps, takes about 5 seconds.

    Are you shooting in AI Servo? Switch to Single shot.
