About the LCD Panel Display for SEF-36PZF

The SEF-36PZF will automatically convert the field angle differential between 35 mm format and the GX-1L depending on the focal length of the lens you are using (when using D-XENON lenses). The conversion indicator appears and the format size indicator disappears when the exposure metering timer of the GX-1L is on (it returns to 35 mm format display when the exposure metering timer is turned off).
