The Command Dial

Rotate the command dial or press it up (q), right (w), down (e), or left (r) to highlight items and press MENU/OK (t) to select.

The command dial also serves as the following buttons: q: b (delete) button (P28)/AF (autofocus) button (P48) w: N(fl ash) button (P29)

e: WB (white balance) button (P42)

r: F(macro) button (P31)

You can also rotate the command dial to choose a combination of shutter speed and aperture (program shift; P36) or to adjust shutter speed in increments of 1/3 EV (P37, 39).

Control Lock

To lock the Q button and prevent the command dial being used as an AF, flash, white balance, or macro button, press MENU/OK until X is displayed. This prevents accidental operation of these controls during shooting. The controls can be unlocked by pressing MENU/OK until X is no longer displayed.
