No controls for ISO, WB or custom menu


Recommended Posts

I have a Lecia DLUX 6 Type 109 and it has no controls for adjusting ISO, WB or customizing the QM. When I press the ISO and WB buttons nothing happens. I also get nothing when I press the F button for the filters--not that I would use them! But these functions don't seem to be working. I reset all the settings on the camera and that didn't help. I've read through the manual twice to try to troubleshoot this and am complete stumped. 

 

Has anyone had this problem before? Any ideas what I can do?

Check that the camera isn't in "Snapshot" mode, which automatically sets many things for the user and prevents them being changed until you use a different mode such as Aperture Priority, Program, or Manual etc.  It's easy to accidentally put the D-Lux 109 into Snapshot mode by pressing the "A" button on top of the camera.  

 

To set the camera to Program mode and gain control of ISO, WB etc: set the shutter speed dial to the red A mark, and also set the aperture ring to the red A.

Brilliant, thanks for that Pete! I have also recently been struggling with not being able to change the ISO and AF mode! Who'd have thought that something so simple as re-pushing the "A" button would sort it all out!
