HANDLING THE CAMERA

While using the electronic viewfinder (EVF) or LCD monitor, grip the camera firmly with your right hand while supporting the body with the palm of your left hand. Keep your elbows at your side and your feet shoulder-width apart to hold the camera steadily.

The EVF can be tilted between 0° and 90°. This is useful for low-level camera positions.

The display switch at the back of the camera controls which display will activate during camera opera- tion. Turn the switch to the auto-dis- play position (A); the display will alternate between the electronic viewfinder (EVF) and LCD monitor automatically.
