Menu Structure

There is one top menu which contains six main
menus. The numbering scheme and the reasons for
grouping the functions under these heading is
explained below. For a full list of menu functions refer
to the table in the appendix.
Menu numbers
The main menus are numbered from 1 to 6. Each
main function under the main menu is given a second
digit (for example, the Gain under the Operate menu
is given number 11, the Black function 12). In some
cases a third level number is given. For example, the
skin function of the contour function of the Setup
menu has number 256.
The first digit refers to the main menu
1
for Operate
2
for Setup
3
for VF/Lens
4
for Install
5
for Files
6
for Diagnostics
The second digit refers to the function under the main
menu. A third digit, if present, refers to the sub-
function. This numbering system is used to assign
particular functions to the programmable user switches
when they are being customized.
The menu number appears under and to the left of the
menu display.
Do not confuse the menu number with the line numbers.
Because of the TOP and PREVIOUS menu items, the
menu numbers are 2 less than the line numbers. This
is not the case for the Main menus as there are no
TOP and PREVIOUS items available in the TOP
menu itself. The TOP menu shows five main menu
items initially. If you scroll through the display, one
additional menus appears. To see how many lines a
menu has, look at the number under and to the right
of the menu. This number, for example, 1-7 indicates
that the cursor is at line 1 and that there are 7 lines
altogether.

Menu logic
Operate menu
This menu contains the functions which are normally
used during the operation of the camera.
Setup menu
The setup menu contains those functions which are
initialized before starting shooting. In many cases
these are the individual (R, G and B) analogue setup
parameters of functions which are switched in the
operate menu.
VF/Lens menu
As the name indicates, the functions contained under
this menu control various aspects of the viewfinder
and the lens.
Install menu
This menu contains functions which are used to install
the camera into a particular configuration. It also
contains controls which can be used to customize the
viewfinder displays and to assign particular switches
on the camera according to your preferences.
Files menu
This menu allows function values to be stored in
scene files and recalled as required.
Diagnostic menu
The diagnostic menu is designed to provide information
on the current status of the camera.
