LIVE VIEW BOOST

During live view shooting, you can brighten the monitor for easier confirmation on the subject.

[OFF]

The subject is displayed on the monitor with the brightness level that is adjusted
according to the exposure being set. You can shoot while confirming through the
monitor in advance to get a picture that is to your liking.

[ON]

The camera automatically adjusts the brightness level and displays the subject on the
monitor for easier confirmation. The effect of the exposure compensation adjustments
will not be reflected on the monitor.

LV FRAME RATE

You can change the frame rate of the live view display.

[NORMAL] Gives priority to display details.
[HIGH]

Gives priority to the speed at which the live view display changes rather than
display details. This reduces the phenomenon in which the shutter closes
slowly due to a slower frame rate.

g

FACE DETECT

When set to [ON], the camera will detect people’s faces and automatically adjust the focus
there.

LEVEL GAUGE

This camera has an acceleration sensor that enables display of a bi-directional level gauge to
detect titling horizontally and in the forward and backward direction when [LEVEL GAUGE] is
set to [ON]. Use this as a guide in situations where you cannot determine whether the
camera is level, such as when you cannot see the horizon or skyline on the screen or when
the screen is dark while shooting night scenes.

Viewfinder and control panel indications:
Press the shutter button halfway to display the level gauge in the viewfinder and on the
control panel after a few seconds.
