Shooting
Using the LCD Monitor
You can use the LCD monitor as a viewfinder for
shooting images. It is particularly recommended
for shooting in macro mode, since the field
shown by the optical viewfinder differs from the
actual area photographed in that mode.
Using the LCD monitor as a
Viewfinder for Shooting
1. Open the LCD monitor to a comfort-
able position for viewing.
2. Set the mode dial to auto or program.
3. Press the LCD/Video button.
The LCD monitor will turn on.
• Pressing the shutter button halfway will
freeze the display until the autofocus and
metering process is complete.
• The recorded image will display on the
LCD monitor if you continue to press the
shutter button fully after the shot is taken.
4. To turn the LCD monitor off, press the
LCD/Video button again.
Checking the Recorded Image with
the LCD Monitor
The review function allows you to check the
image on the LCD monitor after it has been
shot even if the monitor has not been turned
on. This function conserves the battery charge
since the LCD monitor remains off except
while the image is being checked.
1. Set the mode dial to auto or program.
