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 be set to function as an AF illuminator. This makes focusing easier in low-

by selecting the rotational direction of the focus ring.
RESET LENS
When set to [ON], this resets the focus of the lens (infinity) each time the power is turned off.
BULB FOCUSING
You can set the camera to enable focus adjustments during bulb shooting with MF.
