Chapter 2:

Taking pictures and recording video clips

Using the displays

Your camera has two displays:

zMicrodisplay in the viewfinder—Allows you to frame pictures and video clips using Live View, and to view the Capture menu

zImage Display—Allows you to frame pictures and video clips using Live View, review images and video clips in Playback, and to view all the menus

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

To activate Live View on the:

zMicrodisplay, simply look through the viewfinder. The eye-start sensor below the viewfinder detects that you are looking through the viewfinder and automatically turns on the microdisplay.

zImage Display, press the Display button.

NOTE If the microdisplay does not turn on automatically when you look through the viewfinder, you may need to change the Eye-Startsetting in the Setup menu. See Eye-Starton page 66. To adjust the focus in the microdisplay, see Using the diopter control on page 23.
