About the Display Panel for AF360FGZ
The AF360FGZ itself does not have the function to set the FORMAT size to [DIGITAL].
However, when it is used with a SLR Digital
Camera, the difference in focal length between a 35 mm camera and the IC- 1" is automatically calculated based on the difference in angle of view and is displayed on the panel (when using DA, DA L, D FA,
FA J, FA or F lens).
The conversion indicator appears and the FORMAT size indicator disappears when the exposure metering timer of the I_-1" is on (it returns to 35 mm format display when the exposure metering timer is turned off).

You can use [P-TTL Auto] with the AF540FGZ, AF360FGZ, AF200FG or
AF160FC flash unit. The flash pre-flashes before the actual flash and confirms the subject (the distance, brightness, contrast, whether it is backlit, etc.) using the camera 16-segment metering sensor. The flash output for the actual flash is adjusted based on the information obtained from the pre-flash, enabling flash photography with more accurate exposure for the subject than with normal TTL auto.

Lens Correction
Reduces distortions and lateral chromatic aberrations occurring due to lens properties.
• Distortion
Distortion is the phenomenon in which the center of the image appears inflated (barrel distortion) or the center of the image appears pinched
(pincushion distortion).
Distortion occurs more easily when using a zoom lens or a small diameter lens, and straight walls or the horizon in the image appear curved.
Pincushion distortion Barrel distortion
• Lateral chromatic aberration
Lateral chromatic aberration is the phenomenon in which the magnification of the image varies according to the colors (wavelengths of light) when a picture was taken, and may cause a blurred image.
Chromatic aberration occurs more easily at shorter focal lengths.
