QDisplaying the Electronic Level

To help level the camera, the electronic level can be displayed on the LCD monitor, in the viewfinder, and on the LCD panel. Note that only the horizontal level will be displayed. (No vertical level.)

Displaying the Electronic Level on the LCD Monitor

Horizontal level

Check the camera’s tilt.

The horizontal tilt is displayed in 1° increments.

When the red line turns green, it indicates that the tilt is corrected.

Even when the tilt is corrected, there is a margin of error of ±1°.

If the camera is significantly tilted, the electronic level’s margin of error will be greater.

The electronic level can also be displayed during Live View shooting and movie shooting (p.154, 176).
