Re: Alpha 200 stuck on "portrait" mode.

Fixed it, "romanian style". Touched it hardly with my left hand while holding it with the roght one. 3 times and it's ok.
Now I remembered that I left it in my card for a few cold nights. This may be the reason why it was blocked?

Re: Alpha 200 stuck on "portrait" mode.

I think I did that too.
Also, I reset the camera and cleaned the sensor.
Now I took out the battery and left it like that untill I come back home from work.

Re: Greetings from Transilvania, Romania

Well, greetings for DK then! :) I will certainly have fun today, my GF is driving my car so I can enjoy a few drinks at the party.

Re: Greetings from Transilvania, Romania

Welcome, Marius...Unfortunately, most of the world spins this way. :x Your kit lens exif data line was a pretty good one... I had the kit lens about three years before I tried it out myself.

Re: Greetings from Transilvania, Romania

Thank you for your warm welcome. My country is, indeed, very beautiful! Too bad it's habitants are not so aware of that. Recently I was browsing a few (all 3 of them) romanian photo-related forums, but if you do not own a "canikon", you're not so well seen. I don't know why they are discon...
