Using my SL2 with m-lenses has been a joy. Lately I've been shooting some wildlife with the Leica Vario-Elmarit 24-70 mounted for a bit of extra flexibility. Shooting in an area where branches etc. sometimes makes using AF impractical, I find I need to switch between AF and MF quickly to keep the subject in focus. Before I bought the 24-70 I read several reviews that mentioned something like
"...the lens can simply override the autofocus by touching the manual focus ring. This is a nice feature while mounted on the SL2."
Apparently I have somehow disabled this feature on my SL2/24-70 because moving the focus ring on the lens has no effect when the SL2 is set to AFs. I can't find anything in the SL2 manual, so I'd appreciate any help from the group to get this feature working again.
Thanks!
