DISP Button 269

6.6 DISP BUTTON

Menu Position MENU  2  DISP Button

What it Does Lets you specify which of 5 information screens the DISP
button will cycle through.

Recommended Setting n/a

You can have a lot or a
little data co-existing
with your Live View
image.
Perhaps the best way
to explain how these
work is to walk you
through it. Have a
look at Figure 6-4. Figure 6-4: The DISPlay button (left) and the screen
Now invoke MENU
you can use to configure them (right). Each time
 2  Display you press the DISP button, you will cycle through
Button  Monitor each of the checked options. (This screen shows
and the screen in options for the LCD monitor; the one for the EVF
Figure 6-4b appears. (“Finder”) has one less option.)

This screen lets you
specify which of six (five for the EVF) prefabricated information screens
the DISP button will cycle through. Try using the arrow keys to “browse”
the five different options available, and notice that with each option the
camera shows you a small thumbnail preview of what the screen will look
like. You can use the center button to check or uncheck each option. Then
use the MENU button to exit (you MUST use the MENU button; you can’t
just press the shutter release button halfway like you can on most other
menu functions.).
Now go back to shooting mode and look at the rear LCD screen. Now
press the DISP button several times and watch the information display
