FOCUS SIGNAL
When the shutter-release button is pressed partway down, an audio signal confirms the
AF system has focused. The focus signals can be changed or turned off in section 3 of
the setup menu (p. 90). Two tones are available.
SHUTTER FX
When the shutter is released, a shutter sound effect
gives a positive confirmation a still image is recorded.
The sound effect can be turn off in section 3 of the
setup menu (p. 90). Two shutter effects are available.
Signal 1 is taken from the Dynax/Maxxum 9 SLR and
signal 2 is taken from the legendary Minolta CLE, a
compact rangefinder that represents the pinnacle of
the development of the Leitz-Minolta CL.
VOLUME
The volume of the audio signals and shutter FX can be increased or decreased in section
3 of the setup menu (p. 90). The volume can be turned off. This affects the camera’s
audio signals only and will not change the playback levels of a movie clip.
