Basic Operation

Adjusting the Viewfinder Clarity

Turn the dioptric adjustment knob.

Turn the knob left or right so that the AF points in the viewfinder look sharp.

If the knob is difficult to turn, remove the eyecup (p.108).

If the camera’s dioptric adjustment still cannot provide a sharp viewfinder image, using Dioptric Adjustment Lens Eg (sold separately) is recommended.

Holding the Camera

To obtain sharp images, hold the camera still to minimize camera shake.
