brucek Posted July 13, 2006 Share #21 Posted July 13, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) Whenever one of my M7s appears to have a DX coding issue I've found that if I turn the camera off and nudge the ISO dial then turn the camera back on the problem disappears. I have no idea why that works, and I agree that it shouldn't be happening on a camera like this. But that seems to be an easy fix. Bruce Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wbesz Posted July 14, 2006 Share #22 Posted July 14, 2006 I spoke with customer service (CS) in Solms, and I am now getting optical DX coding. This will mean that I can remove the film in very cold environments with some ease! The parts should be in stock next week, and I hope this information helps if you have problems with the mechanical ones. Cheers William Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xrogers Posted July 15, 2006 Share #23 Posted July 15, 2006 So, William, if you don't mind telling...what's the cost of the switch to the optical sensor? Thanks, Clyde Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

drtrm Posted July 17, 2006 Author Share #25 Posted July 17, 2006 I had a message from Solms today saying, that it is not possible to disconnect the Dx coding device in the M7. Also, no promise of an optical Dx reader for my M7 now in Solms. Back to the Scotch Tape solution with my second M7 body on hand. Tom Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorman Posted July 18, 2006 Share #26 Posted July 18, 2006 My M7 has the same problem. The IR solution must consume some power. Does it significantly affect the battery life? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
