About the Electronic Level

When [Level Setting] is set to on in the setup menu or by pressing and holding the DISP. button (GP.202), the camera uses a level indicator and level sound to let you know whether the image is level during shooting. The level indicator is displayed during normal symbol display and histogram.

This is useful for keeping the image level when taking pictures of scenery or buildings. This is also very useful for taking pictures with the horizon visible.

For information on how to set [Level Setting], see P.202.

With [Level Setting] set to [Display]:

The level indicator appears on the picture display. When the camera is level, the level indicator becomes green, indicating that the scale is in the middle. When the camera is tilted, the mark on the level indicator becomes orange, and indicates the opposite side of the direction in which the camera is tilted.

With [Level Setting] set to [Disp + Snd]:

The level indicator appears on the picture display. When the camera is level, the level indicator becomes green, indicating that the scale is in the middle, and the level sound is continually emitted at a set interval. When the camera is tilted, the mark on the level indicator becomes orange, and indicates the opposite side of the direction in which the camera is tilted.

With [Level Setting] set to [Sound]:

When the camera is level, a level sound is continually emitted at a set interval and the level indicator is not displayed.
