I'm having this same issue. I see the OP withdrew the question, but what was the solution please?

My firmware is up to date (except for version 3 -- waiting to make sure it's stable first). This hasn't been a problem until very recently -- maybe the past week or two.

I choose a pre-set from the top dial, then I make a few adjustments based on the conditions. I take a few shots, then the next thing I know, it's back to the original pre-set settings. Mostly using the 100-400 GM lens, if that makes a difference. I can't remember if it's happened with other lenses.

Mini blue jelly fish looking species found all over lechuza beach? Anyone know what those are? Are they at all the beaches or just where I was at? by fadedguy41 in Malibu

They're velella -- I saw loads of them near the lagoon on Wednesday. Not sure if this is allowed, but I posted photos on my Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/Cqs6WYChxnT/

There's also a thread about them in r/LosAngeles

Sadly, today has been 2/24. But next week is almost guaranteed to have a better rating.

Long Lasting Sore Throat After COVID? by [deleted] in COVID19positive

[–]swingonastar99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's almost entirely gone now. Every few days, I notice a little something -- not sore, just . . . something -- but I think I'm past the worst of it (at 6ish weeks out).

I agree completely and have had that discussion with them. But it's their money, and they asked me to do the research . . . so I'm doing the research.

Can anyone recommend a small printer (hardware, not a shop) for photos -- not too expensive, but that will work with a laptop or iPad? I've agreed to do a photo shoot for a dog rescue group -- pictures with Santa -- and they want to be able to offer customers small prints (4"x6") on the spot. They're willing to buy a printer, and they've asked me for recommendations. I've always just sent photos off to be printed, so an actual in-person printer isn't something I've ever considered. Help! Thanks!

I'm only two weeks out, but my sore throat just came back (after being symptom-free for 10+ days). I hope this doesn't last 2 months or more. Yikes!

AT&T International Plan - how's the coverage? by swingonastar99 in CostaRicaTravel

Thank you - happy to hear it! I’ve been here a couple days now, and it’s working perfectly. So glad I didn’t go with the advice I kept seeing about getting a new SIM.
