Basic Operations with the < > dial

You can only use the <> dial when the Quick Control Dial switch is set to <ON>. Use the dial for shooting preparation and selection of functions from the LCD monitor.

When using the <> dial to carry out basic operations, you can use it in two ways.

(1) Press a button and turn the <> dial.

When you press a button, its function remains active while a timer (6 ) runs. During this time you can turn the <> dial and view settings on the LCD panel.

The timer function and return to shooting mode are the same as for the < > dial.

Use the dial this way to select and set the white balance, drive mode and flash exposure compensation.

(2) Just turn the <> dial.

When you are taking pictures, turn the <> dial while watching the viewfinder display or LCD panel. When you are making selections and settings from the LCD monitor, turn the dial while watching the LCD monitor.

● When you are taking pictures, use the dial to set the exposure compensation and manual aperture value.

●When using the LCD monitor, use the dial to review and select the recorded image and select menu functions.
