•If you press [DISPLAY] for 1 second, high angle mode is activated. The LCD monitor B becomes brighter and easier to see when the camera is held away from you. (However it becomes more difficult to see when looked at straight on.)
∫Canceling High angle mode
Press and hold [DISPLAY] again for 1 second or turn the camera off.
•High angle mode is also canceled if power save mode is activated.
•Pictures are displayed on the LCD monitor with increased brightness in High angle mode. Therefore, some subjects may look different on the LCD monitor. However, this does not affect the recorded pictures.
•You may not notice the High angle mode effect if the LCD monitor is difficult to see because of light from the sun etc. shining on it. In this case, we recommend using your hand or another object to block the light when using the camera.
•High angle mode is not activated in the following cases:
–In playback mode
–While the menu screen is displayed
