Recording
When using a zoom lens, rotate the zoom ring of
the lens to adjust the zoom.
For operations of the lens, refer to the operation
guide of the lens.
For a lens which supports the zoom position
indication, the current zoom position is displayed
on the screen in the range of 0 (Wide) to 99 (Tele)
when you press the DISPLAY/BATT INFO
button.
The numerical indication can be changed to that
in a bar by changing the “Zoom Position” setting
of “Display On/Off” (page 119) of the LCD/VF
SET menu.
Rotate the focus ring of the lens for the best focus
while observing the picture on the LCD monitor/
viewfinder screen.
For operations of the lens, refer to the operation
guide of the lens.
Expanded Focus
When you press the EXPANDED FOCUS
button, the center area of the picture is magnified
on the LCD monitor/viewfinder screen, making
the focus adjustment easier.
Press the EXPANDED FOCUS button again or
leave the focus ring unmoved for 5 seconds to
resume the normal angle for recording.
Peaking
When you press the PEAKING button, the
peaking function is activated. This function
emphasizes the contours of the images on the
LCD monitor/viewfinder screen, making manual
focusing easier.
This function does not affect recording signals.
