Custom Settings: Fine-Tuning Camera Settings
•
When high-frequency flicker reduction is
enabled, the shutter speed display shows
only the denominator, with a digit added
after the decimal point.
•
The precise shutter speed is shown. For
example, the shutter speed when
1
/
500
s is
selected is precisely
1
/
512
s, which the display
shows as “512.0”, the denominator.
•
Turning high-frequency flicker reduction off restores the shutter
speed display to the closest conventional value.
D
Cautions: High-Frequency Flicker Reduction
•
The effects of flicker in the shooting display may differ from those seen in
photographs. We recommend that you take test shots to identify the
shutter speed that minimizes flicker and banding.
•
Exposure maintenance is disabled while high-frequency flicker reduction is
in effect, regardless of the settings chosen for Custom Setting b7 [Keep
exp. when f/ changes].

Using “Recall Shooting Functions” with High-Frequency Flicker
Reduction
Selecting [Save current settings] for Custom Setting f2 [Custom controls
(shooting)]> [Recall shooting functions] or [Recall shooting functions
(hold)] while high-frequency flicker reduction is in effect saves the shutter
speed currently selected via fine-tuning. This allows you to, for example,
identify and save the shutter speed that minimizes striping in a high-
frequency LED display and then instantly recall the stored value using the
selected button only when the LED display is in the frame.
