Content Id: 8201781900

Caution

Icons used on this page:

[ ]: Quick Control button / ⋖⋗: ISO speed setting button / ⋖⋗: AF point selection button / [ ]: Shooting tab 1 / ⋖⋗⋖⋗: Cross keys / [ ]: Set-up tab 3 / ⋖⋗: Setting button

*The icons and markings indicating the camera’s buttons, dials, and settings correspond to the icons and markings on the camera and on the LCD monitor.

Caution

Cautions for Touch Screen Operations

Since the LCD monitor is not pressure sensitive, do not use any sharp objects, such as your fingernail or a ballpoint pen, for touch operations.
Do not use wet fingers for touch screen operations.
If the LCD monitor has any moisture or if your fingers are wet, the touch screen may not respond or misoperation may occur. In such a case, turn off the power and wipe the LCD monitor with a cloth.
Do not attach any protective sheet (commercially available) or sticker on the LCD monitor. It may make the touch operation response slow.

Tap

Use your finger to tap (touch briefly and then remove your finger from) the LCD monitor.
By tapping, you can select menus, icons, etc., displayed on the LCD monitor.

When touch-screen operation is possible, a frame will appear around the icon (except on menu screens).

For example, when you tap [ ], the Quick Control screen appears. By tapping [ ], you can return to the preceding screen.
