There should be. It's probably in the settings menu.

Check the manual for exactly what the reset function actually resets.

Page 113 in the manual shows a RESET option which resets most options to the factory defaults.
You can find the PDF version of your manual here.

It's a bummer that your camera quit at party time. Two years is a long time to party anyway, no wonder your camera is whacked out : )
I hope that the reset fixes the problem. I had a Fuji A920 act up a couple of weeks ago, so I bought another A920 on eBay for $31 & shipping. I found out that the whole problem was two sets of weak batteries. It would turn on, and look normal until I pushed the shutter button to the focus stage, at which point it would just go black screen and stop working. Now I have a backup pocket cam. I hope that your glitch turns out to be something as simple as my problem was.

Thank goodness the other camera was waterproof so I got to surprize the customer with some wonderful waterfight shots... otherwise I would be in deep doo doo... I get a new cam on Tuesday... so if the reset doesnt fix ill live.. but i love my fuji for quick stuff :(

Thanks for letting us know that you have a working camera besides the 1000 FD. Upgrade is good. I like Fuji for the dynamic range and color that the "Super CCD" sensors can produce.
