Handle zoom not working

I just noticed the other day that my zoom control buttons and the record button on the handle of my gl2 are not working. I hardly ever use them so it might have been this way for a while. Is there something in the menu that deactivates these controls that I'm not aware of ? I hope it's something simple like that.

Check the switch on the side of the handle is not locked.

Have you got the handle "Lock" slider in the . . er . . "Locked" position. I've been caught out by this before now!

Otherwise I can't help,

Grazie
