issues with M9


Recommended Posts

<p>I just got back from a brief trip to Boston where I had time to do some more practicing with the new M9.<br>

I found that the camera seemed to switch between DNG and fine JPEG without my setting the JPEG.<br>

I know I didn't make the switch bewtween the last DNG and the JPEG. Anyone have an experience like this?<br>

Also the camera shuts down =-screen goes black--when reviewing pictures in the rear screen.</p>

This is a well-known feature/bug that came with the last firmware update; nothing wrong with the hardware. I suppose they change it again with the next update. I don't know about the other issue, my M9 doesn't do anything like it.</p>

<p>Ed, these were my personal experience with my m9 when I first handed it. I had similar encounters (not sure if they were the same as yours):<br>

<br /> 1. ISO, lens types changed without my action: I later discovered that if you stored your settings in a profile and you chose it again at a later stage, m9 reloads all stored settings of the profile. I stored lens types, ISO and others to several profiles named after the lens types so when I switched lenses, I chosed the corresponding profile.<br>

<br /> 2. Preview blank/black - After each shot I encountered a black screen. I later discovered the 1s setting duration is too short. I'm using 3s now and it works fine.</p>

<p>3. Sometimes I accidentally switched to 'C' and when I forgot to turn the 'auto bracketting off' and I encontered similar symtons in point #2 above.</p>

<p>I hope they shed some light?</p>
