Function Reference
The AF360FGZ does not have the function to set the FORMAT size to
[DIGITAL], but the difference in angle of view between standard 35-mm
format and the
s
is automatically calculated based on the
focal length of the lens used (when using DA, D FA, FA J, FA or F lenses).
The conversion indicator appears and the format size indicator disappears
when the exposure metering timer of the
s
is on (it returns
to 35 mm format display when the exposure metering timer is turned off).
