Setting the Auto Rotate Function

Mode Dial

This camera is equipped with an Intelligent Orientation sensor that detects the orientation of an image shot with the camera held vertically and automatically rotates it to the correct viewing orientation in the display. You can set this function on/off.

1 Select [Auto Rotate] in the [ (Set up)] menu.

zSee Selecting Menus and Settings (p. 46).

2 Select [On] and press the MENU button.

zWhen this function is On, an icon showing the orientation of the camera appears at the upper right corner of the LCD monitor (when information display is on).

Normal

Camera on right end

Camera on left end

zThis function may not operate correctly when the camera is pointed straight up or down. Check that the correct camera orientation icon (e.g. ) is displayed and if it is not, then set the Auto Rotate function to Off.

zEven if the Auto Rotate function is set to On, the orientation of images downloaded to a computer will depend upon software used to download the images.

z When the camera is held vertically to shoot, the Intelligent Orientation sensor judges the upper end to be “up” and the lower end to be “down”. It then regulates the optimal white balance and exposure for vertical photography. This function operates regardless of the On/Off status of the Auto Rotate function.
