I must have pushed the wrong button. Now when I push the Q button the only thing that shows is my AF choices.
Now do I get back to the normal screen/ settings.
thanks
can't find an answer in my book.

If desperate, you should be able to do a factory reset to get back to the default settings.

Hi, Try pressing the info button whilst the Q screen is showing. This allows you to toggle through a number of screens. hope this helps.

Push the Display button until you see the preferred screen that you want.

Too bad you can't clone your current settings and get them back afterwards. HUH???

You can save your settings to a card if you want to...

I faced the same issue sometime back. Switch off the camera, switch it on, half press the shutter release then the Q button and then the Info button. It should work.

Just tried many things and this worked. First reverted to factory settings and it did not help. Just tried this.
