I'm not sure if this is the right spot to post this. if its not please redirect me to where i should put this up.
that being said, i just recently purchased a 1d mk ii n from someone for 800 bucks. body only.
body is in pretty good condition and so is the sensor. as of 8/2/2011 its sitting at 100,5xx shots firmware ver. 9.9.1
I cannot adjust my shutter speed, aperture, or iso. it also is stuck in manual mode. when i try and access the menu i cant change certain functions
heres what i see
fist menu (red box with camera in it)
~ cannot change anything
second menu ( blue box with sideways triangle in it)
~ cannot change anything
third menu ( yellow box w/ wrench, hammer, and a #1 in it)
~ format
fourth menu ( yellow box w/ wrench, hammer, and a #2 in it)
~ LCD Brightness
~ Date/time
last menu ( orange box w/ smaller camera in it )
~ cannot change anything
I called the owner and they said they would call me back and they haven't. I called canon customer support and they walked me thru how to do a hard reset (i.e. taking out the battery, memory cards, and date/time battery, and that didn't do much of anything.
I was also told they problem might be that the last owner probably used it tethered to a computer and changed the setting on his computer and deactivated it the body so the only thing i would have to do is get the program to activate it so i can change them on the body itself.
i've also been told that i might want to update the firmware to 1.xx.xx but is there a different way than downloading it to my card because i cant even access the firmware setting in my menu
any ideas anyone?
