Faster access to a wide variety of controls is now possible using the Quick Control Screen on
both cameras, activated by pressing the Multi-controller. Once it's visible, moving the 8-way
multi-controller up, down, left, right or diagonally lets you jump from one function area to
another. When you reach the right function area, turning either the Main Dial or the Quick
Control Dial changes the settings, while pressing the SET button brings up the full control
screen for that function. Another related feature: The LCD can be set to display a group
of Camera Settings or Shooting Functions by pressing the INFO button. With shooting
functions displayed, the settings on the top LCD panel are now duplicated on the large
3.0-inch LCD. If you press the ISO speed button or any other button while the shooting
functions are displayed, the respective full screen will appear.
Minor additions to the Direct Printing (PictBridge) and Print Ordering (DPOF) controls are
included on both cameras. The latest PictBridge features such as reflecting printing effects in
the thumbnails, and image tilt correction have been included. Also, RAW images can now be
printed, but videos or individual video frames on the EOS 5D Mark II cannot be printed.
Since folders can now be added to the memory card, DPOF controls include the ability to specify
images in their respective folders. This ability has also been added to the Direct Image Transfer
function, which can now be used to transfer videos and still photos from the EOS 5D Mark II.
