Features Common to All X Series Cameras
The MENU OK button is used to access deeper levels of camera functionality beyond what is offered by function buttons, dials, and switches.
Named menu tabs are what you use to change capture settings. Press left on the Focus Lever to scroll by tab (so you don’t have to scroll through every function to get to the next page), and press right on the lever to access the desired feature, then MENU OK or press in on the lever to select.
The wrench icon indicates SET UP and features settings including Power Management, Button/Dial Setting, and Screen Set-Up. Choose DISP. CUSTOM SETTING from the SCREEN SET-UP menu to select what information shows on the EVF/LCD.
The DRIVE SETTING button gives you access to burst mode, bracketing, single frame, Advanced Filters, and more.
The photometry/metering setting determines how the camera meters exposure. On X-E4, select it from SHOOTING SETTING menu, or assign it to a button or touch screen function if it’s something you’ll access frequently.
The AEL/AFL button allows you to lock either the exposure or autofocus in a specific part of the scene, allowing you to recompose while maintaining that exposure or focus area. You can assign the AEL/AFL button to AE LOCK ONLY, AF LOCK ONLY, or AE/AF LOCK, depending on your preferences. These can be turned on/off when the button is pressed, then pressed again, or set to activate only while the button is pressed down. The functionality is changed from within the SET UP > BUTTON/DIAL SETTING menu.
The white balance setting allows you to select WB options that match your light source. Press the Q button to enter the Q Menu, then find the WHITE BALANCE option and use the front command dial to cycle through options such as DAYLIGHT, SHADE, or INCANDESCENT. You can also create your own shade of white or select a specific kelvin value, which is a measure of the color temperature of light. If you prefer, white balance can also be set from the IMAGE QUALITY SETTING menu, or assigned to a function button or touch screen for fast access.
To change the view mode, where you can decide how the electronic viewfinder and LCD respond in both shooting and playback, find the VIEW MODE SETTING option under SET UP > SCREEN SET-UP. For instance, you can change view from LCD to viewfinder only or EYE SENSOR + LCD IMAGE DISPLAY (for using both), which senses your eye at the viewfinder and instantly switches from LCD to EVF.
The DISP BACK button allows you to select how you’d like information to be displayed on the LCD and/or EVF. You can customize the information being displayed in SET UP > SCREEN SET-UP > DISP. CUSTOM SETTING.
