Troubleshooting

Autofocus failing to lock on subject

Ensure you are in the correct AF mode (AI Servo for moving subjects) and check that the lens switch is set to AF.

Camera will not take photos in burst mode

Check if your SD card is full or has a slow write speed that cannot keep up with the buffer; try a faster U3-rated memory card.

Battery drains quickly

Disable Wi-Fi or GPS features if active, and ensure you are using genuine Canon LP-E6N or LP-E6NH batteries.
