Hi. First time use of my R6M2 and I previously used a 5DM3. Overwhelming differences to say the least! I must have hit the wrong combination of choices in the R6 menu, after looking at tutorials, cause I got a blue rectangle in the upper left hand corner - which did not move - when I tried to focus. I want to use electronic 1st curtain shutter, AI Servo, H+, center point with expanded area. I chose Case 4 for a hockey game. I think my best bet would be to reset with default and start setting up the menu again. Agree? Any recommended tutorials - videos or written - that focus on set ups for sports (may be birding)?

Thanks in advance.

If it can move it sounds like you may have locked the AF position. Don't remember the button(s) you need to push to get it back but I'd look at that.

    Fast, sharp, and lightweight! A great lens
    This is my main workhorse of a lens and I love it. It's very light weight (only around 2.3 lbs) lens. I've been able to hand-hold it for an event...
