John, that dial freezing is actually a documented design quirk with the battery grip. See "Memo" at the bottom of page 14 of the D-BG2 manual. The e-dials on the camera and grip must be solidly clicked into their detents or their opposite numbers will fail to register. This happens to me all the time when using the grip and discourages me from using it much. -- -bmw -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
