Roll Back Firmware ?
Are you quite sure that you have auto-ISO enabled? It seems strange that this doesn't work when everything else does. I suggest you check your settings before rolling back. G

Roll Back Firmware ?
Thanks for responding so fast. Yes, i have it set to Auto 200-800 and it definately worked fine before the upgrade. Its not a big deal really, being used to mx. Try as i might i cannot find a download of the 1.0 firmware tho.

Roll Back Firmware ?
It might be worth resetting the custom settings first - there may be a piece of data that's "out of bounds" and preventing the code from working correctly. A reset to factory defaults could well solve that (and is often recommended when changing firmware anyway ;) ) Matt

Roll Back Firmware ?
Very fast replies on this forum ! Thanks. Matt, i did a reset before flashing the firmware, as you do with the pc, and have tried it again, no joy.

Roll Back Firmware ?
... i find that auto iso no longer works in that it will not rise above 200. ... When auto iso was added with an up-grade to the DS I seem to remember that it only worked if no +/- Ev compensation had been selected. When any +/- Ev compensation was defined you could still select auto iso but it nev...

Shouldn't you now call yourself "exMxuser"? Glad the problem has been solved. G

Roll Back Firmware ?
No, the MX has been with me for about 25 years and still working like new and i expect it will outlast these modern wonders. The problem it appears is with the user not the camera :roll:

Infra-red remote for DS2 - can it also focus?
I'd like to remotely fire my DS2 using the infra-red remote - is it the 'F' version? My question is: can it also have the camera focus and, if necessary, initiate the flash, before taking the shot? Or does this have to be done 'manually' before, say, walking into shot? Hope you can clarify ...

You can set it to autofocus with the remote, you just need to alter the setting in the custom menu

Perhaps you could ask Pentax directly: "Is there a bug in the firmware?" The fact they are "waiting for software", and that the flash behaved as it did seems to indicate you have unwittingly uncovered a problem in the firmware - a fix would take a while for them to debug/wr...
