I must be missing something. I accepted all the defaults, or recommended settings setting up the M2P. But now, when I push the left forward button (Not C1), rather than taking a photo, it switches the unit to video mode.
Also, I cant figure out what the right forward button does. It seems to refocus, and it beeps, but it's a squeeky beep, not a "shutter click" as before. I find no settings to change what these two buttons do.

What am I doing wrong?
 
look at the buttons: left to take video, right to take a photo (half press - focus)
 
With the video button you also seem to need an extra press before it starts recording, if you switched from photo mode.

Yep, left button same as the Air, caught me out a couple of times. Only seems to be on iOS, CrystalSky doesn’t seem to have this intermediate step, it goes directly to recording video.
