Customizing your camera

Use the custom menus to customize the camera for ease of use. Use Custom Menu 1 to
customize the shooting functions and Custom Menu 2 to set the basic camera functions.
Custom Menu 1 has 9 tabs (a to i) that are divided according to the functions to be set.

For details on using the menu lists, see “Using the menu” (

gP. 29).

Custom Menu 1a AF / MF

AF ILLUMINAT.

The built-in flash can function as an AF illuminator. This helps with focusing in low-light
conditions in the AF mode. To use this function, raise the flash.

FOCUS RING

You can customize how the lens adjusts to the focal point
by selecting the rotational direction of the focus ring.

C-AF LOCK

When set to [ON], during focusing with C-AF mode, this prevents the focus from changing even
if the distance to the subject suddenly changes. This is effective when shooting at a location
where something passes in front of or behind the subject.

AF AREA POINTER

When set to [OFF], the AF target does not light in the viewfinder when the subject is in focus.

AF SENSITIVITY

You can set the range of the AF target for focusing when [AF AREA] is set to M.

[NORMAL]

The camera focuses using a range that is somewhat larger than the selected
AF target.

[SMALL]

The camera focuses only within the selected AF target. When [SMALL] is
selected, the setting display for [AF AREA] becomes o.
