DISPLAY SELECTION
Vertical Display
The horizontal/vertical operation automatically changes the orienta-
tion of the navigation display, when the camera's position is
changed to a vertical or horizontal position.
• Only the detailed and large-icon display are able to be displayed verti-
cally. All others remain in the horizontal orientation.
• If you want the display to remain in the horizontal orientation, regard-
less of the camera's position, choose Custom 32-2 (p. 186).
Operation Display
The operation display appears whenever you operate a camera dial
or function that is not currently on the display. The new settings will
appear for 5 seconds. When the detailed display has been select-
ed, the operation display will not appear.
Example below shows the large icon display. When continuous
(high-speed) drive mode is selected, the display changes to the
operation display showing the new change, and then returns to the
large icon display 5 seconds later.
• During the display's 5 second period, pressing the shutter-release but-
ton partway down will return the display to the previous display.
• To cancel this display, select Custom 28-2 (p. 184).
