[EVF PERFORMANCE]

Choose whether the EVF prioritizes [BRIGHTNESS PRIORITY] or [SMOOTHNESS PRIORITY].

Option	Description
[BRIGHTNESS PRIORITY]	The EVF display prioritizes brightness. Recommended in most situations.
[SMOOTHNESS PRIORITY]	Minimize ghosting in the EVF display. Choose when photographing moving subjects. The brightness of the EVF may drop.

[SMOOTHNESS PRIORITY] is only available when [BOOST] is selected for [PERFORMANCE].

[AUTO POWER OFF TEMP.] (Available from Firmware Version 1.10)

If its temperature rises beyond a certain point, the camera will first display a message and then, if the temperature rise continues, automatically end shooting and power down. Choose the temperature at which the camera turns off automatically.

Option	Description
[STANDARD]	The camera turns off automatically when its temperature reaches the [STANDARD] value.
[HIGH]	Shooting can continue at temperatures higher than the [STANDARD] value, extending the time available to record movies and the like. Because remaining in contact with the camera at these high temperatures could result in low-temperature burns, this option should only be used after mounting the camera on a tripod or taking other steps to avoid prolonged contact with the camera.
