Hello, this is my first post, after doing lots of procrastinating I decided I needed a decent camera to take pictures of my daughter and decided to get an RX1. Now I am complete noobie to photography, perhaps a rather extravagant purchase but I do not regret the decision at all. I am astounded by the quality of the pictures that even my meagre skill can pull from it - when I can figure out how to get it to do what I want
Whilst I have got to grips with most of the shooting modes, the shutter priority mode seems to be doing something weird or I am doing something wrong. I tried searching the forum but couldn't find anyone else with this issue:
Regardless of what shutter speed I select, the display will show the subject for a second or so and then go black and just generates blank pictures. All the other modes seem to work as intended and the sports scene selection mode works as well, just not shutter priority. Any ideas?
Also I am confused about what autofocus options are available in each mode. It seems that in P/A/S/M modes I can select Center and Flexible spot but in Auto mode it only allows me to use Multi, is this right?
Is the AF mode the same as DMF with the exception of manual focus adjustments or are the any other differences?
It seems that when the autofocus is set to Center it locks on pretty much every time but with Multi it seems more inconsistent. If there is a way to turn on Center focus in the full Auto mode my wife will be considerably happier
