I own a k30. I think I may have switched something I wasn't supposed to in my menu or my camera is letting me down once again.
I recently just started using my AE button on back. Well, I went in my menu to see the settings that had to do with it and also to see if there was anything that had to do with al servo. I think I may have changed a setting.
Now when I take a picture my dial for shutter speed and my dial for aperture will not work. I have to turn my camera off then back on to be able to adjust or go into playback and come back out.
When I'm taking the picture I press my green metering button and it sets it. From that point my camera has its mind made up and will not let me change, nothing happens when imove the dials. I have to reset with every shot. I get my settings dialed in, take a shot, then the camera sets it back to what it wants, then i try to change it back and my dials do nothing. So i turn it off then back on and repeat.
I am shooting in manual by the way.
I'm wondering if i may need to restore to factory setting if that is possible.
If it's not me iwouldn't be surprised of it was the camera. The circuit board blew on my first one.

Thank you for all your help! I bought this lens for real estate photography, does a decent job, but I wanted to get to know it a little better and see what it can do.
Your replies are much appreciated!

I'm confused :/ I have a few questions.
I have a Rokinon 14mm wide angle, I have attached pictures. (sorry, low quality cell phone pics)
Once the lens is attached and I turn my camera on it asks me "input focal length"...I assume that is 14 but there is no option for 14. Am I wrong? If I am wrong what exactly is it asking for and if I am right then what exactly do I choose? I usually just go with 12 but why is there no 14 option.
Also, I have an Aperture ring on this lens that I just discovered I could rotate (I know big DUH!). So I rotated it from the 22 it has always been on since I got it and have used it many times to 2.8. (rotated it when it was not attached to body) Since I have done that I get F-- in my aperture block. I have tried off and on, reattaching lens, switching modes and I get the same result. What's going on?
Also, when it was working I noticed I cannot use AF Active area select, actually I cannot auto focus at all, I get nothing if I half press doesn't matter which focus I have it on. Is something wrong or is this the way it is with this lens?
