Seems my laptop has only the small plugin for firewire so I cannot set any personal functions until I get a new cable when I get home. The home PC has the large plugin so that will be fine...So I shoot with stock personal functions...
Don't worry, a new cable is ONLY $40. Bet you have a Dell, huh?
I had the same problem. Another problem with that 4 pin connection, is that the new Sandisk Firewire CF won't work with it either...
Happy Shooting..You will love it....Oh yeah...She loves high shutter speeds, so crank 'em up.....
