Hi,

That's what I've been doing.  I suppose there's something wrong with the
camera.

I could set the custom functions alright, but formatting, date, time, and a
few other things don't work when the OK button pressed.

I guess the camera has to be returned. Is there anything else that can be
checked or tried?
