Still no luck!

The firmware is identical according to the revisions listed for the multiple code segments. I guess my E must be one of the "special" ones - or is the problem with the non-E?

However, I have now transferred all the settings manually (a bit of a chore).

Obviously I'd like to keep these bodies in total sync so will probably make a call to Nikon on Monday to see if they can offer any words of wisdom.

I'll share the results of my call.

Thanks for your attempts to help,

Pete
