EOS R7 Changing the Size of Icons on the Display Screen

lovetoshoot2023 — Fri, 08 Dec 2023 14:10:27 GMT

I'm having difficulty viewing the icons on the flip out display clearly without the aid of glasses on my R7.

Is it possible to increase the size of the icons?

So far I haven't been able to find a way to do it.

Thanks,

Denny

Greetings,

Give this a try. Wrench Menu, Tab 4.

Canon : Product Manual : EOS R7 : UI Magnification (start.canon)

I upgraded the FW on my R5 C yesterday. The Cinema Menus are even smaller than the Photo side. (Had to grab my glasses too) 👓

Just to give you an idea

Rick,

Thanks for your response. I tried the UI Magnification per the link you sent above. This seems to only enlarge the text in the menus as opposed to the size of the icons when you're using the display to compose an image.

Maybe that's as far as the R7 goes in allowing you to customize the display.

Wow! That's a nice feature. I'm surprised to "see" (pun intended) that it's even available. And with the touch screen you can easily turn it on and off. Wish I could do that on my TV. 32" screen and 6 or 8 feet away you can barely read some of the displays or menus. 🤓

Hi Denny,

Thanks for your feedback. Thats all the functionality which is offered currently. The size of the icons on the LCD and EVF cannot be adjusted. 😃
