with a screen resolution of
270 ppi (approx.), which is even higher than the
220 ppi resolution generally considered to be the
upper limit of what the human eye can perceive.
Hybrid construction and an anti-reflective coating
improve monitor visibility when shooting outdoors.
There is a wide choice of index view options to
facilitate best-shot selection, including a
full-featured RGB histogram and shooting
information display.
Quick navigation for one-handed setting
selection
A quick press of the Function (Fn) button on the
rear of the 900 switches the LCD monitor from
standard information display to Quick Navi
information display. From there, you can quickly
adjust essential shooting parameters by operating
the multi-selector with your thumb, or by rotating
the front or rear control dial, enabling you to
change settings on the fly without interrupting
your creative flow.
Adobe RGB color space support
In addition to the sRGB color space
supported by virtually all computer
monitors and modern inkjet printers,
the 900 supports the wider color
gamut of the Adobe RGB color
space that is used by many
professional printers.
At-a-glance settings confirmation
A backlit LCD panel on the top of the
camera enables quick confirmation
of battery level and frames remaining,
and displays drive mode, shutter
speed, aperture, and exposure
compensation information whenever
the corresponding setting is changed,
and it is inconvenient to use the main
LCD.
Dual memory card slots

(both sold separately) enables
you to load both types of media and
switch between them via the Quick

Built-in eyepiece shutter
The built-in eyepiece shutter prevents extraneous
light from entering the eyepiece and skewing
exposure values.
Easy access to frequently used menu settings
The Custom button on the rear of the camera is
set to open the Creative Style menu by default,
but it can be assigned to perform any of 15
other tasks according to your preference.
Lens-specific focus tuning with
AF Micro Adjustment
With AF Micro Adjustment switched on, you can
fine-tune the AF focus point for up to 30 different
lenses in ±20-step increments. Adjustments can
then be stored in the camera’s memory and will
automatically be applied when the same lens is
mounted again.
Mirror Lockup mode
A Mirror Lockup mode enables you to prevent
mirror movement when taking vibration-sensitive
macro or high-power telephoto shots.
