Front Dial
This is used to adjust the Shutter Speed by default, however it is modal, and
after pressing the Front or Rear Key it is repurposed for navigation of the
Camera Function settings and the Camera Menu, respectively. Note the Front
Dial is customizable.
Side Dial
This is set-up to adjust the Aperture value by default, and is similarly
repurposed for making selections from both the Camera Function settings and
Camera Menu via the Top Touch Screen. The Side Dial is customizable.
Rear Dial
This dial is principally used to adjust ISO, and like the modal Side Dial, is also
used for making selections from both the Camera Function settings and
Camera Menu. The Rear Dial is also customizable.
Top Front Key
A short press on the Front Key activates the camera function icons displayed
on the Top Touch Screen for quick selection, either by repeated pressing of the
key or scrolling with the Front Dial. Note the selection is highlighted in white.
Adjustment is made using either the Rear or Side Dial and the depicted
function is active immediately.
Top Rear Key
A short press and release of the Rear Key will gain access to the camera menu.
When the menu is displayed on the top touch screen, the Rear Key’s function
is repurposed for navigation and can then be used to scroll down through the
menu options (with the Top Front Key used to scroll back up). Note the Front
Dial can be used to scroll up and down the menu instead.
On/O button
A quick press will power up the camera. The XF start-up logo appears on the
Top Touch Screen, followed by the Classic display. If the power level is too low,
the battery warning light will flash continously in red. Otherwise if battery power
is sucient, the warning light stops and the mirror can be heard lowering into
position, ready for capture. This behavior is normal, as the mirror is automa-
tically locked up when powered o for peace of mind during transportation. If
left untouched, the camera will enter the Display O (sleep) mode after 1
minute. Simply half press the Shutter release Button to reactivate the display
and ready the camera for capture. Note, the delay for the camera to enter the
Display O (sleep) or Mirror Position are all customizable via the Rear Key >
Power Management.
The On/O button is modal and a quick press while in the camera menu will
return it to the previous level, including exiting the menu altogether if pressed
when navigating the menu at its upper level.
To power the camera down, press and hold the button for 2 seconds. The mirror
can be heard being locked safely in position and the IQ back will power down
after 3 seconds.
