The EPSON PhotoPix LCD monitor allows you to view
images in two modes:
Playback Mode
View Mode
Lets you view images that you have
already captured. Use to locate images,
select and erase images, etc.
Lets you preview in real time what the
camera’s viewfinder sees at any
moment. Use to fine-tune pictures (for
example, adjust the position of the
camera).
Set Playback Mode or View Mode from controls on the front
of the monitor.
The following controls are on top of the PhotoPix LCD
monitor:
