Menu/Features of Custom Setting—continued

12.Command Dial functions (pages 53-57)

Options: 0: Main-Command Dial for shutter speed; Sub-Command Dial for aperture setting (initial setting)

1: Main-Command Dial for aperture; Sub-Command Dial for shutter speed setting

Unlike the initial Command Dial functions, the Sub-Command Dial can be set to select shutter speed (in Shutter-Priority Auto or Manual exposure mode) and the Main-Command Dial to select aperture (in Aperture-Priority Auto or Manual exposure mode).

13.Film rewind (pages 29)

Options: 0: High-speed film rewind (initial setting) 1: Quiet film rewind

Film rewind can be set to perform more silently as opposed to initial high- speed film rewind setting. Film rewind speed of the high-speed film rewind is approx. 15 sec. and quiet film rewind is approx. 23 sec. per 36-exposure film roll with fresh batteries.

14.Multiple exposure (page 64)

Options: 0: Single shutter release operation (initial setting)

1: Continuous shutter release operation

At initial setting, the shutter is released once each time the shutter release button is fully depressed in multiple exposure (single frame shooting). However, it can be changed to continuous shooting where the shutter can be continuously released as long as the shutter release button is fully depressed.

15.Time delay for auto meter-switch-off (page 17)

Options 4 : 4 sec.

6: 6 sec. (initial setting)

8 : 8 sec.

16: 16 sec.

At initial setting, the exposure meter automatically turns off 6 sec. after turning the power switch on or lightly pressing the shutter release button. However, it can be changed to 4 sec., 8 sec. or 16 sec. (Note that the usable number of film rolls per batteries decreases with the longer delay time for auto meter-switch-off since it consumes more power.)

16.Self-timer duration (page 68)

Options 2 : 2 sec.

10

: 10 sec. (initial setting)

5 : 5 sec.

20

: 20 sec.

At initial setting, the shutter is released 10 sec. after the shutter release button is fully depressed in self-timer operation. However, this can be changed to 2, 5, or 20 sec.

17.LCD illuminates by pressing any function button (page 66)

Options 0: Disabled (initial setting) 1: Activated

At initial setting, pressing the Œ button activates the LCD illuminator. However, it can be set to be activated with a press of any button.

18.AF-Assist Illuminator activation (page 43)

Options 0: Activated (initial setting) 1: Disabled

When the condition for the AF-Assist Illumination is met (page 43) and the shutter release button is pressed lightly, the AF-Assist Illuminator of the camera automatically turns on and enables autofocus operation in a dark environment. However, it can be changed not to turn on (autofocus may become impossible).

19.ISO film speed setting for data imprint between frames (F80S only, page 94)

Options 0: Automatically (initial setting)

3: ISO 100

1: Under ISO 25

4: ISO 125-200

2: ISO 32-80

5: Over ISO 250

At initial setting, the F80S automatically sets the film speed of the loaded film when imprinting shooting data between film frames. However, it can be changed to be set manually. Note that Custom Setting Menu 19 can only be selected when the shooting data imprint between film frames is set on the camera.

Set the Custom Setting option to 0 (automatic setting) or at an option of the ISO value of the film in use to imprint shooting data at regular exposure level.

To increase the imprint exposure level, select an option number of lower ISO number than the film in use. To decrease it, select a higher ISO number.

Test shots are recommended when using special film or increasing/decreasing data imprint exposure level in imprinting shooting data between film frames.
