ND Filter
Using the ND filter allows you to open up the aperture to obtain a shallower depth of field even when
shooting in bright surroundings. You can also use the ND filter to avoid the soft focus caused by
diffraction when using small apertures.
1 If the camera mode is set to a mode other than [Manual], change the ND mode setting to
adjust the ND filter manually.
[Camera Setup] > [ND Mode] > [Manual]
2 Close the menu and then press SET.
• One of the adjustable settings will be highlighted in orange on the screen.
3 Push the joystick left/right to select the current ND filter setting.
4 Push the joystick up/down to select the desired setting and then press SET.
Options
[ND Off]: Select this option to not use the ND filter.
[ND 1/8]: Reduces the amount of light by 3 stops (1/8 the amount of light).
[ND 1/64]: Reduces the amount of light by 6 stops (1/64 the amount of light).
NOTES
• Depending on the scene, the color may change when turning the ND filter on/off. Setting a custom
white balance (A 43) may be effective in such case.
• When an optional RC-V100 Remote Controller is connected to the camera, you can select the ND
filter setting with the remote controller's ND button. On the remote controller, the ND filter indicators
illuminate depending on the selected setting (1 for [ND 1/8], 2 for [ND 1/64], 3 and 4 are not used).
