Using live view

You can use the Image Display as a viewfinder to see a more accurate view of what your picture or video will look like. This is useful for close-up pictures and for instances in which framing your subject precisely is important.

NOTE Using the Image Display consumes a lot of battery power. To preserve batteries, use the viewfinder instead.

To turn on Live View, press the Live View button.

The following table describes the information that is displayed in the Live View screen when the camera settings are at their default values.
