BASIC IMAGE RECORDING
Using the Viewfinder for Recording
The illustrations below show what you see when you look through the viewfinder to compose an image for recording.
Focus Frame
� You can use the Diopter Dial to adjust the image in viewfinder screen to your eyesight.
Focus Range Frame
Diopter Dial
IMPORTANT!
Short distance to subject
� Focusing of the viewfinder image is disabled while the camera is turned off or in the PLAY mode.
Note that the focus range frame is valid for subjects that are about three meters (9.8´) away. A different focus range is used for subjects that are closer or farther away. Because of this, you should change to the Manual Focus Mode (MF) or Macro Mode ( ) whenever the distance between the camera and the subject is 30cm (11.8�) or less (pages 64, 65). � The monitor screen turns on automatically whenever the camera is in the Manual Focus Mode or Macro Mode. Use the monitor screen to compose images in the Manual Focus Mode or Macro Mode.
