The Controls Menu

In M-REC mode, the controls menu offers control over the
following settings:

SAVE (Flash Mode Save): When this item is checked, the

camera saves the flash setting in effect at the time the mode
dial is set to OFF. This flash setting is restored when the mode
dial is turned to M-REC. When this item is not checked, the
flash is set to “Auto” when the camera is turned on.

SAVE (Focus Mode Save): As above, but the camera

saves the focus mode setting. When this item is not checked,
focus is set to “Autofocus” when the camera is turned on.

SAVE (Exposure Compensation Save): When this item is

checked, the camera saves the exposure compensation
setting in effect at the time the mode dial is set to OFF. This
setting is restored when the mode dial is turned to M-REC.
When this item is not checked, exposure compensation is set
to “0” when the camera is turned on.

• DIST. FT: When this item is checked, the focus distance for

manual focus is displayed in feet. If this item is not checked,
distance will be shown in meters.
