It's far simpler than you're making it. You set the camera to the parameters that you wish to use. Then you use the camera. When you wish to change the parameters you make the changes. Then you use the camera in that new chosen mode. You need never CHOOSE "snapshot" mode. You cannot permanently "delete" snapshot mode. Because, obviously, it may just what a different user would like to use. a note off the iPad, George On May 24, 2016, at 4:00 AM, bob catchpole via LUG <lug at leica-users.org> wrote: > Hello Nathan, > If it's not exactly rocket science, instead of having a rant, do you know > the answer to some very simple questions?
