in the viewfinder comes into sharp focus.
1 Lift up the viewfinder.

viewfinder clearly.
Tips
If you install an NP-FM70/QM71/QM71D/FM91/QM91/QM91D battery pack in
your camcorder, extend and lift up the viewfinder and adjust the angle of it.
You can change the brightness of the viewfinder backlight. Select [VF B.L.] in the
SETUP display when using the battery pack (page 111).
The [VF B.L.] setting does not affect the brightness of the image when you are
recording.
Recording pictures with the viewfinder is recommended in the following cases:
When the picture seen on the LCD display is poor.
When you want to save on battery consumption.
