Canon functions; Iris control and AF not working

[David Didato]

I've just installed the canon mount and my AF and Iris don't work.

1) I didn't receive a new set of T20 screws or driver with the mount so I used the PL's screws.

2) I'm fairly certain I seated the canon mount and pins firmly but, are there any gotchas when doing the install?

Any software changes in the menus I need to change in order to enable Iris control? For focus I only have Manual and Confirm as options. ?

Let me know as soon as possible - shooting tomorrow! Thanks folks.

Hey David,

Have you tried to reseat the mount yet? Also, Wouldn't be a bad idea to try "Rediscover" in the Maintenance menu and/or reloading the cameras firmware.

Can you get me a LOG file? Nate@red

Nate, thanks. I will try to reseat it tonight, and rediscover.
And - Turns out I did find the screws and driver after all.
