Touch Shutter
Just by tapping the LCD monitor screen, you can focus and take the
picture automatically. For details, see page 245.
Grid display
With [
3x3
l
] or [
6x4
m
], you can display grid lines to help you
level the camera vertically or horizontally. Also, with [
3x3+diag
n
],
the grid is displayed together with diagonal lines to help you align the
intersections over the subject for better balance in the composition.
Aspect ratio
M
The image’s aspect ratio can be set to [
3:2
], [
4:3
], [
16:9
], or [
1:1
].
The area surrounding the Live View image is masked in black when
the following aspect ratios are set: [
4:3
] [
16:9
] [
1:1
].
JPEG images will be saved with the set aspect ratio. RAW images
will always be saved with the [
3:2
] aspect ratio. Since the aspect
ratio information is appended to the RAW image, the image can be
generated in the respective aspect ratio when you process the RAW
image with the camera and the provided software.
