viewfinder screen to your eyesight.
Using the Viewfinder for Recording
The illustrations below show what you see when you look
through the viewfinder to compose an image for recording.
Note that the focus range frame is valid for subjects that are
about three meters 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 or less (pages E-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 Fo-
cus Mode or Macro Mode.
