# Menu operation section and thumbnail operation section

1. <MENU> button (Setting menu basic operations)

   - Press this button to display [USER MENU] on the viewfinder screen. Press this button for three seconds or more to display the main menu on the viewfinder screen. Press it again to return to the original image.

   - This button functions in the same way as the <MENU> button (cursor).

2. Jog dial button (Setting menu basic operations)

   - With the setting menu open, navigate through setting menus, select items, and set values.

3. LCD monitor

   Displays the camera image or replayed image. The thumbnail and status can also be displayed.

   NOTE

   - The quality of the image displayed in this monitor is different from the quality of the image that is actually recorded/output to the camera.

     Bear this in mind especially in the following cases:

     - When [480-59.94i] is set in the main menu → [SYSTEM] → [SYSTEM MODE] → [LINE&FREQ].

     - When [576-50i] is set in the main menu → [SYSTEM] → [SYSTEM MODE] → [LINE&FREQ].

     - When [HLG] is set in the main menu → [PAINT] → [GAMMA] → [GAMMA MODE SEL].

   - When [480-59.94i] or [576-50i] is set in the main menu → [SYSTEM] → [SYSTEM MODE] → [LINE&FREQ], and camera video and playback video are switched, the image on the monitor is temporarily disrupted. This is not a malfunction.

   - If the battery is removed or the external DC power plug is removed while the power is on, a residual image might remain in the LCD screen. This is not a malfunction. It will disappear if the screen is left as it is.

   - At lower temperatures, residual images sometimes appear to increase on screen. This is not a malfunction.
