When you press one of the four points on the 4-way dial, it is supposed to display some options. So, for instance, if you press at the little flower symbol, it should give you choices like OFF, MACRO, or SUPER MACRO.

Mine used to do that. But now, when I press by the flower, it shows me a picture of a lock and a camera. As a matter of fact, it does that if I press for DRIVE or even for the self-timer. And I don't know why. Obviously, it is trying to tell me these functions are locked. I get that. :(

But why are they locked? Trust me, I have been all through the instruction manual. I have no idea what I did to cause this--or to deserve it. I have spent two hours pushing buttons and scrolling through menus, to no avail. I just wanna take pictures. It used to work right, darn it. :bang:

Does anyone know what's going on?
 
OK, that was it, thanks! And I just figured out why the flash wouldn't fire. Wrong "drive" mode.

You know, I think that if Alfred Eisenstadt had had to use this camera, we would never have heard of him. He'd still be reading the instructions. Now, where is my M2?
