0, 1:This option makes it possible to
match the EOS-1 N’s button opera-
tions to the photographer’s existing
camera (EOS-1 or EOS 5•A2/A2E).
2: This option lets the user track the subject
with the focusing point in real-time by
operating the quick control dial, which is
useful when tracking a moving subject
using the focus prediction control in AI
Servo AF mode.
To set the aperture during exposure com-
pensation or manual exposure, press the
focusing point selection button and turn
the main dial.
This is effective for preventing camera
shake caused by mirror operation shock
when making long exposures. Use of a
tripod is recommended.
Set to suit your shooting style and the
environment.
• In the RS mode, there is no beeping.
This function links spot metering to the
focusing point, allowing the user to spot
meter the subject without changing the
framing of the scene.
This function prevents underexposure
of strongly backlit subjects, such as
when shooting portraits backed by light
from the late afternoon sun.
