BASIC IMAGE RECORDING
Using the Optical Viewfinder
You can conserve battery power by turning off the camera’s monitor screen (page 24) and using the optical viewfinder to compose images.
Short distance | Viewfinder frame |

IMPORTANT!
•The frame that is visible inside of the viewfinder indicates the image recorded at a distance of about one meter (3.3´). When the subject is closer than one meter, the recorded image will be different from what you see inside the viewfinder frame.
•The monitor screen turns on automatically whenever you select the Macro mode or Manual Focus mode. Always use the monitor screen to compose images in these modes.
