playback options- changing the way you view photos taken

Postby shockadelica- on Thu Aug 04, 2005 5:09 am

i was just playing around with my camera and must have accidentally changed something

when in playback and after taking a shot i would get a full screen preview
now after i take a shot im getting a smaller preview with a yellow border in the tope left corner. and when in playback mode
im seeing 4 pictures squeezed into the screen instead of my usual 'One.

i reseted the cam options by pressing and holding the two buttons with the green dot..but it doesnt fix it


any help?

Press the ISO button while in Preview to cycle between the various modes...

Also, unless I'm very much mistaken, pressing and holding the buttons with the 2 green dots will format your CF card....not reset your camera settings back to default.
To do this, I believe you need to jump into the CSM menu...from memory it's the first option listed ?!?

Yep, press the ISO(SQUARES) button to cycle through playback options.

Not sure what the two green buttons do, but to format your car you hold the two buttons that have a red format .

Hope it helps

Yep, holding the two green buttons resets all the shooting options back to defaults... obviously this doesnt change any playback options.
