[QUOTE="Kazielle, post: 389258, member: 35375"] Thanks for your reply! I tried turning it in one direction many times, then back again, based on your post, but nothing happened :( Thanks for trying! Hmm, I'm getting a sinking feeling that my camera is faulty. I'm definitely turning the command dial (as per your description and the one in the manual), and I try both manual mode (M) and aperture priority (A), and nothing changes when I scroll the wheel. Actually, after fiddling more, the command dial doesn't seem to be changing ANYTHING, even when I change to other priority modes. Is there a way I can test whether the command dial is faulty (other than 'it's not changing anything!')? Thanks for your reply! I couldn't remember the official name of the Exposure Compensation button, but that's the button I meant when I said 'aperture button', yeah :) The command dial unfortunately isn't adjusting anything, and I'm getting a sinking feeling it's an issue with my camera.
