Body Design and Expandability

Triaxial Tilt Rear Monitor

Triaxial Tilt Rear Monitor

The triaxial tilt rear monitor supports photography at both low and high angles and with the camera held vertically. The large 3.2-inch 2,100k-dot monitor features an RGBW liquid crystal display. The inclusion of white (W) pixels increases maximum brightness for outstanding visibility, even outside under strong sunlight. The monitor uses capacitive sensing for convenient touch control similar to that of a smartphone.

Status LCD

Status LCD

Among the largest in its class, status LCD offers instant access to 19 essential camera settings, including the F-number and shutter speed. When camera power is off, it displays the battery level and remaining shots. Pressing a dedicated button causes the LCD to light up for 5 seconds. Two brightness levels allow you select a brightness appropriate for your shoot.

Double Memory Card Slot

Double Memory Card Slot

The double memory card slot is compatible with SD Memory Cards (UHS-II), XQD Memory Cards* and CFexpressMemory Cards (Type B)**. Allocation Record mode allows you to specify the card slot to be used for recording for different image formats. This feature is also convenient for recording long videos or as a backup. Relay Recording mode relays recording to the other card slot after the first card runs out of free space during recording. Backup Recording mode records the same data to the two cards

Body Design

Body Design

The carefully designed layout supports intuitive control. Buttons used during shooting are grouped on the right side of the camera, while frequently used controls, such as the joystick, are within easy reach of the thumb. To support touch-based operation, the buttons differ in size and shape, and each dial has a slightly different texture. The grip is the culmination of analyzing repeated touch-and-try simulations with professional photographers. It fits snuggly in the hand and feels natural and comfortable to hold.

The operation lock lever can help prevent unintentional operation of buttons and dials, including the front dial, rear dial, joystick, cursor button, touch screen, and more.

Useful Functions for Nighttime Shooting

Useful Functions for Nighttime Shooting

Night Mode: When shooting dark scenes like starry skies, this mode suppresses the stimulation of eyes that have become accustomed to the dark. The LVF and rear monitor can be set separately.
Live View Boost: The display is brightened by lowering the frame rate and increasing the gain. This lets you shoot while framing, even in extremely dark situations.
MF Assist 20x: The MF Assist display has been enlarged up to 20x. Accurate focusing is possible even on tiny objects like stars.
