Ahh, well y'know, it's all about the love.

And still no response from the original poster... curious.

Hopefully he has come to grips with the manual options and enjoying the XL2 for its worth.

I must confess to frustrations myself and then ascribing malign personality to an otherwise inanimate object and with obscene wordstuff, castigating it to hell and gone for all the obstruction it puts my way.

The only answer is to put it down, gently, albeit with forced composure and control, depart the scene, have a think, do something else and come back, approach the problem systematically, maybe get the red mist one more time, leave and come back again and arrive at a solution.

Or as Chris suggests, mitigate the stressor entirely, sell and buy something else.
