Displays during shooting (Onscreen Markers) You can display a grid or a horizontal line at the center of the screen. Use the markers as a reference to make sure your subject is framed correctly (vertically and/or horizontally). NOTE - Movies have a 16:9 aspect ratio, so the [16:9 (White)], or [16:9 (Gray)] marker can be used as a convenient reference to check the area that will be recorded.
- Using the onscreen markers will not affect the recordings.
