I just got myself a G3 and cant figure out how to change the F-Stop value in "M" mode?

The only way around it is to switch to AV mode change the value with the dial then switch to back to M.

I hope this is not the only way? :confused:

Look on page 81 of the manual (page 87 of the pdf).

thanks coldrain. :) i got a little confused when it said main dial and did not expect a multifunction button on it. i kept repeatedly reading the same page till the coin dropped. haha. :D

i love the manual control on this its awsome. :p

now im selling my 5mp A95 and keeping the 4mp G3. the image is stunning, hardly any CA and its got more... i dont know but it looks good.

i always wanted the A80 now i got the G3. im so happy. :)
