Set-up Menu

Custom Image sub-menu

Like on the K-7 the Custom Image menu is reached via its own, dedicated button and allows control over the image parameters. Flicking the on/off/preview switch button takes an image to preview the settings. Rolling the rear dial switches between standard and fine sharpening while turning the front dial shows or hides the highlight and shadow contrast settings.
