Thanks for the response Larry, problem now fixed see other answers

I used to use asterisk too, still do in some modes, but when handholding camera for macro its not easy to use the screen or the asterisk, the m-fn seems better

I got into this camera via the m100, loved that little thing, i'm sure the 200 works well too

Glad there was a solution! Yes C1 and C2 save nearly every setting in the camera --- which is great in some ways but you have to watch out a little and re-save the config any time you make the slightest change you want to 'keep'.

Those modes are great insurance for setting back to completely known configs --- in case your shirt bumps settings off, and you end up on some crazy ISO or exposure compensation and you need to quickly reset, you can flip modes back and forth to C1 and C2 and know your settings are all as you expect.
