Using the touch display

Use the touch display by directly touching the LCD monitor with your finger. It is recommended that you use the stylus when precise operations are required such as editing images after shooting.

Touch

This refers to touching the touch display with your finger or the stylus and then releasing it.

Touch an icon to select it, and release to set that option (a guide display appears describing the function of the selected icon before it is set). Touch an item for more than two seconds to cancel the selection. Use this to display toolbars or select icons.

Press and hold down an arrow icon (suqr) to change the setting or switch screens in some menus.

Double-touch

This refers to touching the touch display twice quickly.

Use this to directly set a function without having to display the guide display.

Drag

This refers to touching and moving your finger or stylus across the touch display.

Use this to change the displayed portion of an image or to change a setting by sliding the cursor along a setting bar. If you inadvertently select the wrong icon, drag your finger or the stylus from that icon to the desired icon, and then release your finger or the stylus to reselect.
