Getting to know your camera better

Functions that cannot be selected from menus
Some items may not be selectable from the menus when using the arrow pad.
Items that cannot be set with the current shooting mode
Items that cannot be set because of an item that has already been set:
Combination of [j] and [NOISE REDUCT.], etc.
Selecting the optimal record mode
Record modes are divided into 2 main types: RAW and JPEG. RAW records without
reflecting the settings for exposure compensation, white balance, etc. on the images
themselves. JPEG records as images that reflect these settings. JPEG also compresses
images to reduce the file size when recording them. JPEG is divided into [SHQ], [HQ] and
[SQ] types based on the image size (pixel count) or compression rate. The higher the
compression rate, the grainier the image will appear when enlarged during display. A rough
guide for selection is shown below.

To restore functions to their settings at the time of purchase
The settings are saved even when the power is switched off. (When power is switched on in
“Easy shooting modes” (P. 18), it changes to specific settings.)
To return to the factory default settings, set [RESET] under [CUSTOM RESET SETTING].
You can register up to two types of settings to be reset. Set various functions of the camera
and register using [RESET1] or [RESET2] under [CUSTOM RESET SETTING].

Confirming the exposure when it is difficult to view the monitor outdoors
The monitor may be difficult to view and the exposure difficult to confirm when shooting
outdoors.
During live view, press the INFO button repeatedly to display the histogram.
The following shows you how to read the histogram display easily.
How to read the histogram
1 If the graph has many peaks around here, the image will appear
mostly black.
2 If the graph has many peaks around here, the image will appear
mostly white.
