A7 IV - setting aperture & shutter speed

[shabbagaz]

This may be a stupid question so apologies in advance if I come across as an idiot!

I have an issue in 'manual mode' where I can't set the aperture and shutter speed separately. Every time I try to set one, it adjusts the other at the same time.
I'm not sure why it's started doing this - possibly something I have inadvertedly pressed.

I've tried resetting my settings and have also Googled solutions - sadly they have proved fruitless.

Can anyone provide a solution?

Many thanks!

I have to answer with a stupid thing’s: are you sure that you are in “M” mode and not in “P”?

[shabbagaz]

Yes I am in 'M' mode.  First thing I double checked.

[danardeng]

Actualy I don't remember any setting that can cause that...

Can you share a pic of the back of you screen with all parameters visible, just to see if I see anithing usefull?

You are not in "M"!

You are in "P" recalled from memory setting "2".

Be sure that your ring is well placed as here

Head in hands moment, I know exactly what I did, I looked at the wrong marker!  Thought I was in 'M' when I wasn't!

Saving the settings I wasn't aware of - many thanks for that as that will come in useful.
