1. Continuing from Figure 4-75, image 3, select Reverse
rotation and scroll to the right (see Figure 4-76, image
1).
2. Select Yes or No from the list (see Figure 4-76, image
2).
3. Press the OK button to lock in the setting.
My Recommendation: I leave the Command dials rotation
set to factory default. I find life confusing enough without my
camera working backwards!
Change main/sub
This setting allows you to swap the functionality of the two
Command dials. The Main command dial will take on the
functions of the Sub-command dial, and vice versa. Here are
the two settings:
On When set to Off, the Main command dial controls
shutter speed while the Sub-command dial controls
aperture. By selecting On, you reverse the functionality
so that the Sub-command dial controls shutter speed
while the Main command dial controls aperture.
Off The functionality of the Command dials is set to
the factory default.
Here are the screens and steps to swap the functionality of the
Command dials (see Figure 4-77). Continuing from
Figure 4-75, image 3, select Change main/sub and scroll to
the right (see Figure 4-77, image 1).
