I came back from a trip to Amsterdam to find all my photos had a slight blemish in the same area of the picture,which indicated a foreign object somewhere in the lens system.

I finally returned the camera to Supra and they have provided me with a brand new DC-ZX6 .

I tried photographing a rose in the garden today in bright sunlight on Auto and it over-exposed terribly and burnt out all the highlight details,whereas on Av the highlights were handled correctly. Does this imply that the firmware needs reloading?

Thank you Peter,

I rang the service Dept in N.Ireland and they have requested me to return it to the Service Centre here in the UK .[for any English viewers its: Sertronics Ltd. in Walsall]

So we shall see what transpires!.
