Silent Control - Canon EOS 5D Mark III Instruction Manual

Silent Control

3
This function is convenient when you want to change the ISO speed, sound-
recording level, etc., silently while shooting a movie.
If [z5: Silent Control] is set to [Enable h], you cannot adjust the

sound-recording level with the <5> Quick Control dial during movie
shooting.
Even if you change the aperture silently with <h>, the movie will still

record the lens aperture-driving sound.
If there is water or dirt on the <h>, the touch operation may not work. In

such a case, use a clean cloth to clean the <h>. If it still does not work,
wait a while and try again.
Before shooting a movie, use the <h> to adjust the sound-recording level
in the Quick Control and [Rec. level] screens.

or right of <h> for silent operation.
