Cautions
• The tilt indicator is not displayed when the camera is upside
down, movies are being recorded, or the interval timer is on.
• Muting the camera speaker (pages 125–126) also mutes the
beep that sounds to indicate that the camera is level.
• The tilt indicator is intended as a guide only and should not be
used as a spirit level or in other applications in which a high de-
gree of precision is required. Accuracy drops when the camera
is in motion or you are shooting on a vehicle or other moving
platform.
