ND Filter
| ND Filter |
| Using the ND filters allows you keep the aperture within an appropriate |
58 | range when recording in bright surroundings*. |
* Closing down the aperture when recording under bright conditions may cause the |
picture to appear soft or out of focus. To avoid the loss of sharpness due to diffraction, use a denser ND filter or a faster shutter speed (A53).
Operating modes: 
Turn the ND FILTER dial toward the + or - direction to select the desired ND filter setting.
• Turning the dial up (in the + direction) will change the ND filter setting in the following order: [ND1 2 stops] [ND2 4 stops] [ND3 6 stops] ND filter off. (Turning the dial down (in the - direction) will cycle through the settings in reverse order.)
NOTES
•Depending on the scene, the color may change when turning the ND filter on/off. Setting a custom white balance (A62) may be effective in such case.
