NOTES
• If the focus mode switch on the EF lens is set to MF, you will not be able control the focus through remote
operation. Depending on the lens used, remote operation may not work correctly.
• If you operate the zoom after focusing, the focus on the subject may be lost.
• If you focus manually and then leave the camera with the power turned on, the focus on the subject may be
lost after a while. This possible slight shift in focus is a result of the internal temperature rising in the camera
and lens. Check the focus before resuming shooting.
• While the camera is focusing, do not touch the end of the lens or focus ring while they are moving.
Using the Focus Assistance Functions
In order to focus more accurately, you can use two focus assistance functions – peaking, which creates a clearer
contrast by emphasizing the outlines of the subject, and magnification, which enlarges the image on the screen.
You can use both functions simultaneously for greater effect.
You can also use the [w Other Functions] > [Custom Function] > [F. Assist. B&W] setting (A 122) to switch
the screen and output from the MON. terminals to black & white while using the focus assistance functions.
Peaking
The camera offers two peaking levels to help you focus more accurately.
1 Press the PEAKING button.
• The peaking icon (J or K) appears at the lower center of the
screen and the outlines in the image on the screen will be
emphasized, depending on the focus.
• Press the button again to turn off peaking.
• Alternatively, you can use the [£ LCD/VF Setup] > [Peaking]
setting to turn peaking on and off.
2 Open the [Select] submenu (under [Peaking]) to select the peaking level.

frequency of the two peaking levels independently of each other.
However, only [Color] will be applied to an external monitor
