The screen display changes to match any settings
you make so that you see how the change affects
the pictures or videos.
The available settings vary depending on the
selected camera.
The setup settings are camera specific; if you
change the settings in the secondary camera, the
settings in the main camera do not change. The
setup settings are also shooting mode specific; if
you change the settings in the image mode, the
settings in the video mode do not change.
Switching between the modes does not reset the
defined setup settings.
The setup settings return to the default settings
when you close the camera.
If you select a new scene, the colour and lighting
settings are replaced by the selected scene. You can
change the setup settings after selecting a scene if
needed.
