Display
Tilt is shown in the picture display. The indicator turns or-
ange when the camera is tilted; the amount and direction
of rotation needed to bring it level is shown by the position
of the indicator in the display (the indicator turns red if the
angle is too great to be shown). The indicator turns green
when the camera is level, either in the normal shooting
orientation or rotated 90 ° to shoot pictures in “tall” orien-
tation. Tilt is not shown if the display is off, indicators are
hidden, or the framing grid is displayed (page 36).
