TONING

Color and five tone settings are available with still image and movie recording. Toning controls whether an image is color or black and white as well as sepia color or red tone, blue tone, green tone. The toning can be set in the recording-mode main menu (p.34) or the in the movie recording main menu (p.60). The live image on the monitor will reflect the selected mode. This has no effect on the file size.

When auto reset (P.52) is active, the toning will be reset to color when the camera is turned off. The toning must be set before an image is captured. When setting the toning, an indicator will be dis- played on the LCD monitor to indicate the active toning setting; the effect is immediately visible on the monitor.
