Hey guys, wanting to use the G7x iii in a compact underwater housing, but it doesn’t have controls for the dials. I could totally make it work if I can assign aperture to a button on the back, is there a way to do that?

Fyi it the ikelite action housing for G7x iii

 

thanks!

Customized buttons options on the G7XIII are explained on P284 of the user manual, which you can find AT THIS LINK 

Hopefully that will help


cheers, TREVOR

Thanks for the reply! I've read through the menu a few times and it looks like you can only change the aperture with the dial and ring.. not set it to a back button. If this can be confirmed that would be awesome. Thanks for the help!

Sounds to me like you have just confirmed it.  Cannot be set to a back button.
