Viewing the Current Continuous Setting

At settings other than Single, the current “continu-
ous” setting is indicated by an icon in the monitor.

Noise Reduction

When NOISE REDUCTION is on or set to Clear Image Mode (

TINUOUS is automatically set to Single, and the options in the CONTINUOUS
menu are disabled.

rection as the lens, the display in the monitor will be inverted.
