Release mode - Z7

churinchurin Posts: 51Member
in Nikon Z cameras
Presently it is set for Continuous L. I am unable to change this release mode. For example, I want to change it to Single frame.
The manual says "Press and hold the release mode button(located below MENU button) and rotate the main command dial", but nothing happens.

    Just press the button (don't hold) and you'll see the various release modes appear on the screen. Scroll the rear dial to change the mode. If you're on continuous L there will also be a secondary list of fps above the L (1,2,3,4,5). Use the front dial to cycle those.

    I used to be able to change mode by momentarily press the button and rotate the main command dial, but that no longer works or nothing happens by rotating the dial.

    I reset Custom Settings and Release Mode came back to top fifth position on i display. From there I could change release mode option.

    Still instructions in pp83 of the manual does not work. Maybe this is a separate issue?

    So what you are saying is that you saved the settings in U? and not until you came out of it could you change the setting...Good . P83 is correct for all modes other than User setting

    I did Reset All Settigs. Still no go.
    Now I found the Main Command Dial is dead. It cannot do anything by rotating.

    Very strange. I would contact Nikon and see what they say.

    Nikon customer support told me that the Mail Command Dial is not working.
