Handling the camera11
11.7.2 Procedure
Follow this procedure:
1. Push the navigation pad to display the menu system.
2. Select
(Settings) and push the navigation pad. This displays the Settings menu.
3. Use the navigation pad to select Device settings > Lamp & laser > Enable lamp &
laser.
4. Use the navigation pad to select Device settings > Focus > Autofocus > Laser.
5. Do one of the following:
• Use the navigation pad to select Device settings > Focus > Continuous autofocus
> On.
• Touch the soft button
.
Note You can also assign the continuous autofocus function to one of the program-
mable buttons
. For more information, see section 11.12 Assigning functions to the
programmable buttons, page 34.
11.8 Operating the laser distance meter
11.8.1 General
The laser distance meter consists of a laser transmitter and a laser receiver. The laser
distance meter determines the distance to a target by measuring the time it takes for a la-
ser pulse to reach the target and return to the laser receiver. This time is converted to a
distance, which is displayed on the screen.
The laser receiver also works as a laser pointer. When the laser distance meter is on,
you will see a laser dot approximately at the target.
WARNING
Do not look directly into the laser beam. The laser beam can cause eye irritation.
Note
• The laser is enabled by a setting. Select
(Settings) > Device settings > Lamp & la-
ser > Enable lamp & laser.
• The symbol
is displayed on the screen when the laser is on.
• The camera can be configured to automatically measure the distance when an image
is saved. Select
(Settings) > Save options & storage > Measure distance. With
this setting, the Object distance parameter (see section 16.5 Changing the measure-
ment parameters, page 64) in the image data is automatically updated with the meas-
ured distance when an image is saved. (There is no effect on the Object distance
setting in live mode.)
• If the target reflection is low or if the target is angled from the laser beam, there may
be no return signal, and the distance cannot be measured.
• The laser distance meter may not be enabled in all markets.
11.8.2 Procedure
Follow this procedure:
1. To turn on the laser, push and hold the laser button
. The distance to the target is
displayed on the screen.
2. To turn off the laser, release the laser button
.
