Preparing the Camera, Basic Functions
The LCD monitor can also be positioned as below.
Using the Viewfinder
If the surroundings are too bright (for example, when you are
shooting outdoors) and images on the LCD monitor are not clear,
use the viewfinder for shooting. (The same image and information as
the LCD monitor appear in the viewfinder.)
zYou can adjust the viewfinder with the diopter adjustment dial to
adapt to your vision so that the displayed information (p. 36)
appears in crisp focus.
1
Open the LCD monitor left 180
degrees and tilt it 180 degrees
toward the lens.
z In this position, icons and messages do
not appear on the LCD monitor.
z The image shown on the LCD monitor is
automatically flipped and reversed (the
Reverse Display function) so that it
appears correctly from in front of the lens.
(You can disable the Reverse Display
function (p. 48).)
2
Fold the LCD monitor back
against the camera body.

camera body. If it is not fully closed, the

against the camera until it clicks.
