Viewfinder

This camera-recorder offers a choice of viewfinders: a viewfinder with a small LCD screen and one with a 3.5-inch LCD monitor.

Use the viewfinder that best suits the application and shooting conditions.

O The brightness and hue may differ between the images appearing on the viewfinder and LCD monitor and those displayed on a TV monitor.

To see how the final images will appear, check them on a TV monitor.
