Just received my X1 - stupid question about on/off switch

I was happy to receive my camera today :-)

 

There's one thing I find strange about the power switch: it goes from OFF to S and then to C very easily, and then pushing it to timer mode clearly requires much stronger pressure harder. What I don't necessarily like is that when turning it on, it naturally tends to go to C mode as it is where the stop is the stronger (and the stop on S is very light) - I have to be careful to set it to S (which is what I will use most).

 

Is this normal?

 

Thanks!

Never really noticed that there was a difference moving through S C and to timer, but now I see there is.

The answer is to be a little more careful, you get used to it. More of a problem is the fact that the shutter and aperture dials on the top move easily too. You get used to checking them regularly.

Anyway, enjoy your X1.

Thanks Allan. Yes I'll be fine - just wanted to be sure it is not a defect as I found it strange they would have picked continuous shooting as the most natural position.

 

Enjoying it already :-)
