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 Set the camera mode to [Manual] (A 33).
• Alternatively, you can leave the camera mode set to [Auto] and change the [Camera Setup] >
[ND Mode] setting to [Manual] to be able to adjust manually only the ND filter.
2 Press the joystick.
• One of the adjustable settings will be highlighted in orange on the screen.

NOTES
• Depending on the scene, the color may change when turning the ND filter on/off. Setting a custom
white balance (A 41) may be effective in such case.

filter setting with the remote controller's ND button. ND filter indicators 3 and 4 are not used.
