• The viewfinder display returns to normal.

If the calibration is not completed properly, the beeper will sound and the LCD panel display items will blink. In such a case, press the shutter button again and start again from step 4.

Calibration may not be possible if you wear mirror-type sunglasses.

If Eye-Control AF cannot be used, use automatic or manual focusing point selection. See page 38.

Eye-Control Calibration Refinement

Eye-Control precision can be improved by repeating the calibration procedure under various conditions (outdoors, indoors, at night, etc.) for the same channel No. The additional eye-related data can accumulate in the same channel No. for both the horizontal and vertical camera orientations.

A calibration channel must not store calibration data for more than one person. Otherwise Eye-Control precision will be affected. A different user should use a different calibration channel that is available. Or, existing calibration data should be deleted to store new calibration data. See page 46.

Calibration Tips

• Relax your shoulders and hold the camera steady in a natural posture.

Align your line of sight with the center of the viewfinder.

Instead of looking at the blinking focusing point itself, look at the point beyond it.

If you wear eyeglasses, wear them properly without having them slide down your nose.

CAL is an abbreviation for calibration.
