Dial your way to fine-tuned perfection
TRINAVI — Navigation made simple
Sony proudly introduces TRINAVI, an
innovative new approach to camera
operation that enables faster and more
intuitive fine-tuning of camera settings.
Through the use of a navigation button
and three easily accessible dials, it virtually
eliminates the need to hunt through menu
hierarchies to find desired settings. You
simply press the navigation button located
next to the shutter button to select a major
settings category (Exposure Settings, Focus
Settings, White Balance Settings, D-Range
Settings, Creative Style Settings, etc.). Then
use the three dials on the top and back
of the camera to quickly and easily adjust
parameters as desired. Only parameters
related to your chosen category are
displayed to ensure simple operation. With
TRINAVI, operation is always satisfying. You
spend less time searching for settings and
more time expressing your creative vision.
Customizable navigation button
NEX-7 makes it easy to customize what
categories are selectable with the
navigation button. By default, Exposure
Settings, Focus Settings, White Balance
Settings, D-Range Settings and Creative
Style Settings are selectable. But Picture
Effect Settings and Custom Settings —
which lets you assign parameters to
the three dials from a list of alternatives
including ISO and Metering Mode — can
be chosen to replace other categories
(except Exposure Settings). Moreover, the
categories can be customized to appear
in any order you like.
