The camera shoots with an angle of view equivalent to the APS-C size or Super 35mm in the following situations. The angle of view becomes approx. 1.5 times the focal length indicated on the lens.

  • When shooting still images
    • [ Shooting] is set to [Auto], and an APS-C-format dedicated lens is attached.
    • [ Shooting] is set to [On].
  • When shooting movies

    • The movie format is set to HD and [ Shooting] is set to [On].

Note

  • When recording full-frame-size movies and in the 4K 120p/100p mode, the angle of view becomes approximately 1.1 times the focal length indicated on the lens.
  • When recording full-frame-size slow- and quick-motion movies and in the HD 240fps/200fps mode, the angle of view becomes approximately 1.2 times the focal length indicated on the lens.
