Aperture-priority automatic exposure (Av), Shutter-priority automatic exposure (Tv), ISO sensitivity automatic exposure (ISO), and Manual (M) exposure settings enable fine-tuned video settings. It has a 4-channel microphone that supports 360-degree spatial audio recording built into its body. The 0.93-inch organic EL (OLED) monitor allows you to see at-a-glance shooting information such as the battery level, shooting mode, remaining number of images, aperture and ISO.
