AF Distance Metering

5-point AF

This mode prevents the system from mistakenly focusing on the area between two subjects in a vertical composition.

3-point high speed AF

This mode prevents the system from mistakenly focusing on the area between two subjects in a horizontal composition.

1-point high speed AF

The AF time has been dramatically reduced to achieve outstanding focusing.

*Compared with normal speed focusing.

1-point AF

Although screen-freeze in high-speed AF is now minimized, if you take the picture of subject with fast movement, you can select this mode which does not have any screen-freeze while focusing.

Spot AF

This mode keys the focus to a small area within the frame.

Quick response for spur-of-the-moment shots

AF Assist Lamp

Provides extra lighting as a focusing aid for slightly dark situations where AF focusing would ordinarily be difficult.

Auto Angle Detection

This function detects and records whether the photo is being shot horizontally or vertically, then automatically rotates all vertically framed images during playback so they can be easily seen on the LCD monitor or TV screen.*

*By connecting FX01 with an AV cable. Some TV models are not compatible with this function.

Composition Guide Linesnew

By setting the departure day when setting out on a trip with the FX01, you can display which day of the trip each photo was taken on while viewing. Great for organizing your travel photos.

Composition Guide Lines

Displayed in the LCD, these thin horizontal and vertical lines make it easy for you to compose your shots or to hold the camera level.

Real-Time Histograms

This graph, which can be displayed in the LCD monitor as you line up the shot, shows the status of the exposure and contrast in real-time.

Selection of 3 Aspect Ratios

The aspect ratio is easily selectable between 16:9* wide, 3:2** and conventional 4:3 to shoot in the framing aspect that best suits the subjects' composition or the image's purpose of use. You can shoot images in the wide 16:9 format*. Then insert the recorded SD Memory Card into a TV equipped with an SD card slot to view them in perfect, wide-screen size. Some TVs will display the image in stunning high definition.
