Chapter 2:
Taking Pictures and
Recording Video Clips
Using the Displays
Your camera has two displays - the Microdisplay and the
Image Display. Whichever display is currently on will be called
the “active display” throughout this manual:
NOTE Using the Image Display consumes a lot of battery
power. To preserve batteries, use the microdisplay instead.
NOTE If the microdisplay does not turn on automatically when
you look through the viewfinder, you may need to change
the Eye Start setting in the Setup menu. See Eye Start on
page 84.
Microdisplay (viewfinder) Image Display
Allows you to frame pictures
and video clips using Live View,
and to view the Capture and
Setup menus.
Activate Live View by looking
through the viewfinder. The Eye
Start sensor below the
viewfinder detects your eye and
automatically turns on the
microdisplay. Use the diopter
control to adjust the focus in the
microdisplay (see page 19).
Allows you to frame pictures
and video clips using Live View,
review images and video clips in
Playback, and to view all the
menus.
Activate Live View by pressing
the Live View button.
