Using Eye Control Performing Calibration Using Eye Control for AF Configuring Pointer Display Managing Calibration Data You can control focusing by looking at AF points to select them in viewfinder shooting (eye control). Caution Eye control is only available in still photo shooting. Performing Calibration The process of registering characteristics of your line of sight for accurate detection of eye movement by the camera in viewfinder shooting is called calibration.
Page 81
Calibration operations After adjusting the viewfinder ( ), perform calibration under the same conditions as when you will shoot (such as with or without glasses or contact lenses). During calibration, keep your eye near the viewfinder. Select [ : Eye control Select [Calibration (CAL)].
Page 82
Look through the viewfinder. Holding the camera horizontally, look through the viewfinder so that the four corners of the screen appear evenly spaced. Press the < > button. Start calibration. Look at the indicator displayed and press the < > button. Keep looking at the indicator without blinking until it disappears.
Page 83
Perform calibration for vertical shooting. For higher eye control accuracy, select [Refine] and perform calibration for vertical shooting. Holding the camera vertically, look through the viewfinder so that the four corners of the screen appear evenly spaced, then repeat step 5. If you will also shoot vertically with the camera grip facing the other direction, perform calibration while holding the camera that way.
Page 84
Adding calibration data To register calibration data for other users or eyewear conditions (such as with or without glasses or contact lenses), select an available number to assign the data to from the numbers labeled with [ ] on the [CAL no.] screen, then perform calibration.

Using eye control to display the focus guide By setting [ : Focus guide] to [On], you can use eye control to display the focus guide for assistance when focusing manually. Look at the subject. Look at the subject to focus on. Press the shutter button halfway.
Page 91
General eye control precautions When multiple people will use eye control on the same camera, each person should select a different calibration number and perform calibration. Similarly, when the same person will use eye control with and without glasses or contact lenses, a different calibration number should be selected and calibration performed for each situation.
Page 92
Enhancing eye control accuracy The camera can learn about eye characteristics from the calibration data it collects. Eye control accuracy can be improved by repeating calibration under various levels of brightness (such as indoors, outdoors, during the day, and at night) for the same calibration number.
Page 93
Configuring Pointer Display You can configure pointer display, including whether the pointer is visible or not. Pointer display Pointer visibility can be set to [On], [Shtg standby], or [Off]. • Select [Shtg standby] to keep the pointer visible from when you look through the viewfinder until the moment you confirm the subject to focus on using eye control.
