This camera has two viewfinders; one is a
miniature LCD in the viewfinder and the other is a
retractable 3.2-type LCD.
Use the viewfinder that best suits the application
and shooting conditions.
The brightness and hue may differ between the
images appearing on the viewfinder and LCD
monitor and those displayed on a TV monitor.
To see how the final images will appear, check
them on a TV monitor.
Using the viewfinder
1
Set the POWER/Mode selector switch
to ON (Page 25) and check that images

Viewfinder
Do not allow the eyepiece of the viewfinder
to remain in direct contact with sunlight or
other strong light sources.
Internal components may be damaged and
fire may be caused if light accumulates
through the lens.
Fitting the eye cup
Attach the eye cup by aligning the ridges on the
eye cup holder with the grooves on the eye cup
and fitting them together.
Turning the eye cup after attaching it may
cause the eye cup holder to come off. If the
eyecup holder does come off, see “Cleaning
the Viewfinder” (Page 88) for details on how to
refit it.
