USET UP

How to use the SET UP menu (➝p.138)

 

 

AF AREA ILLUMINATION

This option controls whether or not the active focus area is highlighted in red in the viewfinder.

[AUTO]

Selected focus area is automatically highlighted as needed to provide contrast with background.

[ON]

Selected focus area is always highlighted, regardless of brightness of background. Depending on brightness of background, selected focus area may be difficult to see.

[OFF]

Selected focus area is not highlighted.

FOCUS AREA SELECTION

At the default setting of [NO WRAP], the focus-area display is bounded by the outer focus areas so that, for example, pressing the multi-selector up when the top focus area is selected has no effect. Select [WRAP] to allow focus-area selection to “wrap around” from top to bottom, bottom to top, right to left, and left to right.

BILT-IN AF-ASSIST

At the default setting of [ON], the built-in AF-assist illuminator lights to assist the focus operation when the subject is poorly lit (➝p.64). Select [OFF] to turn the illuminator off.

SEXPOSURE

AE LOCK

This option determines what controls lock exposure.[R/A:RELEASE/AE-L]

Exposure can be locked by pressing the AE-L/AF-L button or by pressing the shutter button halfway.

[A:AE-L ONLY]Exposure can only be locked by pressing the AE-L/AF- L button.

ISO AUTO CONTROL

If [ON] is selected for this option, the camera will automatically adjust ISO sensitivity when necessary to help ensure optimal exposure.
