On the Canon 5D MK3 I set this up for my railway photos………. Put it on TV Set up the ISO Set up the Exposure time But I can’t change the F Number, why is that?

Thank you Gav for your help.

I want to try my 5D MK4 camera with the Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM on a moving steam train. Which Stabilizer Mode 1, 2, 3 should I use? Thank you.

My camera is Canon 5D MK IV (new for me). If I take say 10 photos of a moving steam train, I would like to have every photo to be sharp on the front of the train. Please can you give me the details I need and tell me where on the camera I can find the settings for it, thank you. There is no rush.

Please see my 2 photos. The first one is where I pressed the focus button, kept it pressed down while I move the camera to follow the front of a train. But if you look at the second photo, the focus point did not follow it, why is that?

I use the ‘back button sight’ on my camera. When I press the focus button I always keep it pressed down while I move the camera to follow the front of a train. Is that right or wrong? I ask this because when I press the focus button on the front of the train the focus point does not follow...

Thank you all for your help. I will have a go at no: 4

So sorry, I said Canon 5D MK 3 ........ but I mean MK IV. I have added a different AF Mode photo, please can you let me know which one (number 1 to 7) I should use for moving cars/trains, thank you.

Which AF mode should I use on the Canon 5D M3 for moving cars and trains?

I use the ‘Expand AF Area’ focus point.

Thank you, but it's always set to the AI-Servo.

Camera: Canon 5D MK IV When a train comes toward me I press the back auto focus button on the front of the train and keep hold of it as the train comes closer to where I want to take the original photo. I thought doing this would keep the front of the train in focus while it is moving. But...

Thank you everyone for your kind info. I will try the different settings what you have said and see what I get.

No as I was going out in the car!

Last night I saw a nice colourful full size moon and thought that would make a great photo. Can someone please give me what settings I need to use to get a photo, thank you. Camera: 5d Mark IV Lens: Canon EF 70-300mm F/4-5.6 IS USM
