I locked the right dial while walking/steadying the camaera with my hand. Actually an icon with a padlock shows when i turn the right dial. It has happened before 2 or 3 times and i could unlock it. Now i do not remember how i unlocked it and can not find anything in the manual. Except press the icon, but that does not work. Manual mod and m lenses are useless now. Who is clever and kind enough to help me out.

 

And a picture for the thread. In the northern part of holland rich farmerfamilies build the churches in the villages. That way they acertained themselves a permanent seating and a safe burrial place. Yes, they where burried inside the church. There was a little competition going on so here you find the most beautiful or, sometimes, strange coloured churches. Almost Mediterranean. This is one of them, built in Uithuizen. (T; 55-135mm)

You need to press and hold for about 3 seconds to toggle it.

 

At that point a padlock icon shows up in the middle of the screen, confirming the new state.

 

Now, if that still doesn't work, well... you need to reset the beast.

I tried that. Worked for the left dial, but not for the right one. Tried again today and now it works -)

 

I probably did upset the deva a bit yesterday.

 

Thank you.

It's the lock icon on the screen that you need to touch and hold for a few seconds. Not the button on top of the wheel. 

The icon appears on the screen when you turn the click wheel.
