k1 help

i have turned on the flash mode on the k1 and cant turn it off
help please

I have a K-1 mk1 and far as I can tell there is no 'Flash Off' setting in any menu, see attached image of the 'flash' page from the manual.




My K-50 is the same.

Hope this helps.

Mike

It's stuck on m and the flash symbol on the rear screen and turning the wheel to tav or any other the m and symbol it stays the same

If you remove the camera battery, wait a few minutes and then re-insert it might reset the camera and solve the problem. I presume you can't get the camera to actually do anything? If you can, then a factory reset and/or firmware upgrade might do the trick.

Thanks for all the help
but was unable to fix so its gone back to ice under warranty

My K1is exactly the same. I've just assumed that's how it was meant to be. I don't reckon this is a fault, just a "quirk" in the software, deliberate IMO.
It does make life simpler when using a flash. Connect the flash and switch the flash on if you want to take a flash shot and then switch the flash off if you don't want a flash shot. Quick and easy, saves messing about in the camera menu.

Thanks but is your k1 stuck on m
And you can't change it on the mode dail
To tav etc

No.
But just a suggestion, you haven't accidently locked the button have you. It's easily done and the first time I did I thought the button was jammed.
With regard to the flash, the flash on the K3 III is also on all the time although the symbol doesn't show

Hopefully lce will sort it out
Thanks for your help the k1 is still new to me and a lot to learn
but a fab camera

1.Check your settings are not locked.

2. There was an issue with early K-1's where the mode dial is locked on M mode.

I suspect this is your issue. Nothing to do with flash settings.
