Level indicator display
Note ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
•
If the camera is tilted too much, the marking of the level indicator becomes red and
indicates the opposite end of the direction in which the camera is tilted.
•
When shooting with the camera positioned vertically, the level function can be used
to determine whether the image is vertically level.
Caution-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
•
If the camera is tilted too far forward or backward, or it cannot be determined whether
the camera is level, the level indicator becomes red.
•
During grid guide, no display, or when the picture display is off (
G
P.56), the level
sensor sound is emitted, but the level indicator is not displayed. When [Level Setting]
is set to [Disp + Snd], only the level sensor sound is emitted.
•
The level function is not available if the camera is held upside down, when recording
movies, and during interval shooting.
•
The level function becomes less accurate when the camera is moving or when
shooting in an environment subject to moving, such as on a amusement ride.
•
No level sensor sound is emitted when [Level Setting] is set to [Disp + Snd] or
[Sound] and [Vol. Settings] is set to [
] (Mute) (
G
P.172).
•
Use this function as reference so see if images are level when shooting images. The
accuracy of the level when using the camera as a level cannot be guaranteed.
