The <9> consists of an eight-direction key and a button at the center.

Use it to select the AF point, correct

shooting, scroll around magnified

images during playback, operate the

Quick Control screen, etc.

You can also use it to select or set

menu options (except [31: Erase

For menus and the Quick Control

screen, the Multi-controller works

Before using the vertical grip’s

buttons and dial, set the vertical-grip

ON/OFF switch to <1>.

When not using the vertical shooting

controls, set the switch to <2> to

prevent accidental operation.
