lilbilly666 Posted November 4, 2023 Share #1 Posted November 4, 2023 Advertisement (gone after registration) Noticed an odd issue on a new to me, used Q2. The aperture ring and displayed aperture do not match past a certain point. Everything from 7.1 down to 1.7 matches. Going up from 8-16 is off by 1. Ex: physical ring is set to 11, but displayed on screen states 13. Confirmed that the displayed aperture is what is captured when a photo is taken. I found two threads on here related to this from a few years ago that implied this was common around firmware version 3. 🤷♂️ Confirmed: in PASM firmware version 5.0.0 manual focus ring is locked swapped batteries, powered off/on -same result recharged batteries, powered off/on -same result swapped SD cards after formatting in camera - same result no SD card in camera - same result reset camera using reset camera function on menu 5 Is there another way to factory reset the camera back to the original firmware version? Thoughts? Anyone experienced the same? Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members!

andybarton Posted November 4, 2023 Share #2 Posted November 4, 2023 The rear screen says f11, which is roughly where your aperture ring is set. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andybarton Posted February 3, 2024 Share #5 Posted February 3, 2024 So, they’re charging you 429 dollars for the repair and another 30 dollars for the leatherette that they have to remove anyway to affect the repair? Yet the invoice total is zero? How does that work? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilbilly666 Posted February 3, 2024 Author Share #7 Posted February 3, 2024 Advertisement (gone after registration) It is an estimate. I had to call them yesterday to confirm it was not $0 and approve the repair. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
