Hope this may be of some use to you. I used eosinfo rar for the shutter count but also Google brought up how to use photoshop to find the shutter count.

Yes it is fully manual i wish to use. And yes it is set to the M and not scn and the button has to be pressed to change modes.

I can sometimes access manual now and Also alter it then by pressing on the screen.

I am going to take it into the local photograhy shop when I actually can get out of Covid lock down ( been in it since March virtually ) and have it checked.

Many thanks for all the helpful replies. Another plus for ugli hedghog. and all the hedghogs of course.

Best wishes for the coming Christmas and all the best for the new year.

Sorry that should say you tube, should read my own posts!!!!

Sorry just noticed the question about kids screen.

it shows in the rear screen and has the image of a child running shown in the top left hand corner and then settings etc. on the rest of the screen.

Presumably settings to catch movement.

Not had this camera long and not had a lot of time to study everything. Although yuo tube helps with some of it.

Keith

Thank you for your suggestions I will try them later today when I have a little longer time.

Thank goodness for ugli hedgehog reliable and knowledgable members.

Thank you again.
Keith

Thank you for quick reply.

This worked at 6th attempt but seems to revert back to the kids screen.

Now shows scn screen and then sometimes manual actually appears, some improvement at least.

Thank you.

I set the manual setting to photograph, all went well. now when I try to set it in maual it does not seem to see it.

The screen at the rear now shows in the top left hand top corner of a child running and says kids.

I can not seem to get out of this so I can't set up the manual functions.

Any help with this problem will be much appreciated.

This is how it should look.

Could you not right click on it- right click and send image to desktop. Then addit to email etc.

Thanks to you all for your replies

Thank you, I tried to put these photographs on as a surprise for my husband who is in hospital at the moment.

But my daughter has just pointed out that there should be seven photographs in the sequence not just 5 (before you say it "WOMEN).

He should be home in a couple of days so will leave until then.

Sorry

Thank you

these are the original photo's taken. Hope you see them all (had trouble putting them on originally).

What I need to know for future use Is how to return photo,s to one line of five (as originally started with)
instead of two lines as they now appear on photoshop (must be a adjustment somewhere that I have touched and not realised).

Once again many thanks for your trouble and reply.

Thanks Jerry, Good idea.

Keep posting I enjoy your posts.

Trying to make a panorama out of 5 photographs seemed to be going alright. The 5 photos lined up on the chequered screen ready to blend etc. Then a power cut ended the session.

Returning to photoshop to try again the 5 photos now appear as a line of 3 and the other two appear below them and I don't know how to correct this, so any help that the people with more experience could give me would be welcome.

No doubt there will be ideas from across the pond.

Thank you.
