Hey everyone,
I’m running into a weird AF issue with my R6 Mark II and wanted to see if anyone has a fix or knows whats up.
A short while into a shoot, the AF starts wiggin out and flashing/dancing around. Big and small green/white tracking boxes start flickering and jumping all over the screen - see the vid .The weirdest Part: My settings are locked to:
1 shot and Single Point AF.
Whole Area Tracking is off
Preview AF is Disabled
Subject Detection is none
I can still move the single point focus with the thumb stick
Basically the camera seems to be forcing whole area tracking on its own even though the menu says it's off. just need to turn off the camera to get it to clear
Happens on both my 14-35mm and 24-70mm L lenses.
Anyone else had this problem?
Here is a google drive link to a short video showing what is happening:

Doesnt happen every shoot just once in a while. can live with it just a bit weird thats all
???
ignore the flickering black screen thats just my phone camera getting too close and turning the LCD off
