Magnified Recording Display

Magnified display is available during movie recording, which enables you to check focus or other details. Magnifying display does not affect recorded movies or HDMI video output.

  2. Set to [On (Screen)].

    • Tap [Magnify or reduce] on the shooting screen or press the Magnify or reduce button.
    • Each time you tap [Toggle recording display magnification] or press the button assigned to [Toggle rec. disp. mag.], the magnification ratio changes, from 2× to 5× to 10×.
    • The magnified position is centered in the guide frame used for AF points or face detection, or otherwise, the previously magnified position is used.

  4. Move the magnified area.

    • Use Multi-controller to move the magnified area as needed.
    • To center the magnified area, press Multi-controller straight in.
    • To return to actual size, tap [Magnify or reduce] or press the Actual size button.
