Has anyone else been going through this? I seriously thought I was doing something wrong and then I started searching the internet and found I wasn't alone... the only thing is, I can't seem to find any ways to "fix" the issue other than returning said camera.. and I think I might go nuts giving my camera up for any length of time.... hoping someone has found a way to fix the issue on their own.... if you have come up with the 60D miracle please I beg of you... fill me in :)
Sincerely,
Desperately Searching For a way NOT to Return my Camera :)
@robinwarner I can't seem to get a crisp photo at all..they are all "soft" or slightly out of focus...not really sure.. its been going on for a while no matter what lens I use..
Depends....I do both. There are lots of threads out there for it saying its a defect in the camera itself. I guess im probably going to have to send it in..luckily I still have my 300d or I'd really go crazy. Thanks for trying to help.
just a thought ...have you installed the latest firmware ? are there any updates available via Canon?
I have just had a quick look & there is a EOS 60D Firmware, Version 1.1.0 showing on the canon website from July this year , cant see that it covers your issues but might be worth asking the question , http://www.canon.co.uk/Contact_Us/..
Not sure about the 60D but the 50D has a AF Microadjustment. Check your owners manual for info. You can adjust all lens by the same amount or each lens individually. This might help with AF, want help on the manual side.
@steveh sadly I have already done that :( thank you though @aspada Yes, its not that.. checked..and yes actually I did the tilt shift in camera a while back, so I will recheck to see if I did anything on accident now that you mention it. Thanks! @hollandcrew definitely checking this out.... thanks
From what I've read the 60D is a bit of an enigma in the Canon line up. Seems like it's an upgrade in certain areas and a downgrade in others. Lack of the AF Microadjustment is one of those areas people are listing as a downgrade. Have you tried different lenses? If so, are they all soft? If so, I'd follow Steve's comment and upgrade the firm ware.
@dddave0 different lenses... upgraded firmware..however I did just reset all settings to out of box settings and I think that may have done the trick... about to go test it out :) Thank you for your advice!
Did the reset definitely solved the problem? I was thinking of buying 60d but found that many people complain about the softness/out of focus of the image. Now I am just not sure...
@voodoofox yes it did :) This camera is a great buy and they did good on fixing the bug. I would still recommend this camera to anyone interested in a dslr
@jessicapena hey i am facing the same problem? what is the solution to this issue? should i give my camera to the service center or upgrade the firmware? i am having a firmware version 1.0.8. Please advice.
