I took the SD card out of my M9 and processed a few shots in LR4. I put the card back in the camera and reformatted it. I then noticed that the main menu cycled through only about eight alternatives and the ISO button on the left was inoperative. I was just about to think about re-installing the firmware into my "busted" camera when I noticed that the camera had somehow (mea culpa) gotten into "snapshot mode". Now why in hell would anyone who spent $7000 on a camera want to put it into an idiot point-and-shoot mode? I can just barely accept the fact that there is an option for the camera to output .jpg although I can't image using it myself. But snapshot mode !#$&^%$#!#$^%#$!!!!! Herb Herb -- Herbert Kanner
