f6: Release Button to Use Dial

Gbutton ➜ ACustom Settings menu

If Yes is selected, adjustments that are normally made by rotating the command dial while holding a button can instead be made by rotating the command dial after the button is released (setting ends when the button is pressed again, the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, or the standby timer expires). The following buttons are affected: the E, M(Y), W(S), X(T), L(U), AF-mode, Z(Q), or D, Fn, preview, and AAE-L/AF-Lbuttons. The Fn and preview buttons are only affected when assigned Choose image area, Choose non-CPU lens number, Active D-Lighting, or HDR (high dynamic range) using Custom Setting f2 (Assign Fn button) or f3 (Assign preview button). The AAE-L/AF-Lbutton is only affected when assigned Choose image area or Choose non-CPU lens number using Custom Setting f4 (Assign AE-L/AF-L button). Note that the standby timer will not expire when No limit is selected for Custom Setting c2 (Standby timer).

AChoose Image Area

If Choose image area is assigned to any of the Fn, depth-of-field preview, or AAE-L/AF-Lbuttons and Yes is selected for Custom Setting f6 (Release button to use dial), you will need to press the button a second time to put the selected setting into effect after pressing the button and choosing an image area with the command dial.

f7: Slot Empty Release Lock

Gbutton ➜ ACustom Settings menu

Selecting Enable release allows the shutter to be released when no memory card is inserted, although no pictures will be recorded (they will however be displayed in the monitor in demo mode). If Release locked is selected, the shutter-release button is only enabled when a memory card is inserted in the camera.
