Adjusting the Viewfinder
Chapter 2 Preparations
To adjust the eyepiece focus
First focus the image with the lens, then adjust the
eyepiece focusing knob or eyepiece focusing ring to get
the clearest viewfinder image for your eyesight.
The visual adjustment range is
3.5D to +0.4D.
You can change the adjustment range by installing an
exchange part. The adjustment range after the exchange is
3.6D to 0.8D, or 2.8D to +2.0D.
Contact a Sony service representative for more
information about exchange parts.
To adjust contrast and brightness
Carry out these adjustments with the color bars displayed.
1
Set the OUTPUT/DCC switch to the BARS position.
The color bars appear on the viewfinder screen.
2
Watching the color bars, turn the CONTRAST and
BRIGHT controls to adjust the contrast and
brightness.
3
Return the OUTPUT/DCC switch to its original
position.
To adjust the outline emphasis
You can rotate the PEAKING control to adjust the
peaking, H detail, and V detail of the image in the
viewfinder. These adjustments strengthen the outlines of
the image in the viewfinder, making it easier to focus the
camera.
Menu settings allow you to adjust peaking only with the
PEAKING control, and to adjust H detail and V detail
separately.
For details, see “Setting the Viewfinder Screen Display”
on page 139.
