Notes
• Where touch control is not possible or not desirable (e.g. in EVF
mode), the status screen can alternatively be controlled via the
joystick and/or the thumbwheel.
• The settings become effective immediately.
• The framed control panels can be selected. Unframed values are
added in automatically (depending on the active exposure mode).
• The available menu items in photo and video mode differ (see
p. 28 and p. 30).
SELECTING SETTINGS
Settings can be selected in various ways from within the status
screen. The setting types vary from menu to menu.

ACCESSING A STANDARD SUBMENU
These menus behave as if they were accessed from within the main
menu (see p. 63). Touch control is therefore unavailable. From
there, you return to the status screen and not to the next higher
menu item.
