Selecting a lens file
With this camera, values, such as the compensation values,
which are specific to the mounted lens can be registered in
a lens file. You can perform necessary adjustments upon
replacement of lenses by merely invoking the registered
file.
When you remounted a non-serial lens for which a lens file
has been registered, select the file using the subdisplay.
For lens file selection on the subdisplay, see "3-2-7
Selection of a Lens File" (page 36).
If the mounted lens is a serial lens, the corresponding lens
file will be automatically invoked.
For details on the lens files, see "5-1 File Configuration"
(page 91).
