Getting started

The initial general setting is language choice. This choice is retained but can be changed at any time. You can choose between:

ENGLISH

GERMAN

FRENCH

ITALIAN

SPANISH

JAPANESE

CHINESE

Before each shoot an ISO and a white balance setting should be made (white balance is for your convenience regarding the appearance of the image on the display though; it will not affect the raw file. See next chapter for details).

Although the description below illustrates how the language choice is set, it is also a general introductory illustration of how settings are changed.

Setting the menu language

Proceed as follows:

1.Press the MENU/EXIT () button to open the menu.

2.Press the NAVIGATOR button ( and ) to select the SETTINGS sub-menu.

3.Press the NAVIGATOR button () to open the SETTINGS menu.

4.Press the NAVIGATOR button () to select the USER INTERFACE sub-menu.

5.Press either ZOOM button ( + or – ) to choose a new lan- guage (in this case, Spanish).

6.Press the MENU/EXIT () button again to close the menu.

N o t e

If an item on the menu is dimmed (for example, in fig. 4 "Camera" and "GPS" are dimmed), it signifies that the item is not currently accessible.

T i p

If you find the sensor unit has been set to a language you don't understand (a rented camera, for example), you can use the procedure above to get back to your preferred language just by following the actions and appearance in the illustrations here.
