Viewnder
This camera has two viewnders; one is a
miniature LCD in the viewnder and the other is a
retractable 3.5-inch LCD.
Use the viewnder that best suits the application
and shooting conditions.
The brightness and hue may differ between the
images appearing on the viewnder and LCD
monitor and those displayed on a TV monitor.
To see how the nal images will appear, check
them on a TV monitor.
Images are always displayed on the viewnder.
Using the viewnder
1 Set the POWER switch to ON and check
that images appear in the viewnder.
Keep the LCD monitor closed.

2 Adjust the viewnder’s angle so that the
screen is positioned where it is easiest to
see.
You can move the view nder out to about 90
degrees perpendicular to the camera.
3 Adjust the diopter adjustment lever so
that you can see the characters on the
viewnder screen clearly.

Eye piece
Do not point the eye piece at the sun or
other strong light source.
Light concentrated by the lens could damage
internal components and poses a re hazard.
Fitting the eye cup
Attach the eye cup by aligning the projections
on the eye cup holder and eye cup and tting
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 Viewnder” (page 119) for details on how
to ret it.
