Multifunction bar - A new function was added to the "Multifunction bar (M-Fn bar)" installed on the right side of the viewfinder.

Three operations can be allocated separately at the time of shooting and playback, in combination with the slide operation and the left and right tap operations.

Pre-set for shooting are "ISO sensitivity" "white balance" "focus / information display" "movie shooting" "flexible AE" "AF" In addition to this, you can also select "user customization" "no allocation" I will.

With "ISO sensitivity", ISO sensitivity can be raised and lowered by slide operation.

For example, if it is a "function shortcut", you can set the rating on the image by pressing the left side and lock it by pressing the right side.

When you hold the camera with your right hand, this M - Fn bar is in the position where the thumb is touched or not touched.
