Set up Q on Canon 7D


I have a Canon 7D and I used AI Servo a lot. Someone told me I could set up the DOF button (front of camera) to become a AI Servo button which would be faster when I need AI Servo. I don't use the DOF button anyway. Any idea how? I've looked everywhere in the manual and online - nothing.
Thanks.

  I was afraid someone would ask :o)

In the menu, go to Custom Controls (second to last icon on main menu)

- C.FN IV: Operation/Others
- First menu (number 1 in the box on the right corner of screen), click SET
- You are now in "Metering and AF-Start", click SET
- Scrool down until you hit the DOF button, click SET
- scroll for the option you want (I changed the DOF button to "One Shot - AI servo") and click SET.
Voila !
Much easier than it looks !
Hope you like your 7D - I love it :o)
