ND Filter Warning Display
In order to adjust the amount of light when you are
shooting
at a relatively bright location, the diameter
of the iris may become extremely small, causing
blurry effects to occur as a result.
This phenomenon is known as “small aperture
diffraction”. You can make appropriate use of ND
filters to prevent it from occurring.
This unit displays an ND filter warning when
necessary to prompt you to select an appropriate
ND filter.

When the iris diameter becomes too small
while adjusting the light intensity, or when

the ND filter display starts blinking.
Adjusting the White
Balance
Adjust the white balance according to the color
temperature of the lighting. You can select the
adjustment mode according to the shooting
conditions.
As the color of the light (color temperature) varies
according to the light source, it is necessary to
readjust the white balance when the main light
source illuminating the subject changes.
