By opening the LCD Monitor and turning it so that it faces forward (to the lens side), you can let the subject in front of the Palmcorder monitor the shot while shooting is in progress.

When the LCD Monitor is opened, the Viewfinder is disabled automatically. However, when the LCD Monitor is rotated forward, the image is also shown in the Viewfinder.

If you prefer to have the image on the LCD Monitor to look like an image in a mirror, set [SELF-REC] on the [OTHER FUNCTIONS] Sub-Menu to [MIRROR]. (Mirror Mode)

Images are recorded normally and no left and right reversal occurs. If [MIRROR] is selected, only recording Indication [¥], recording pause

Indication [¥;], Card PhotoShot Indication [ ] and Remaining Battery Power Indication [x] are displayed 8. If a general Warning/Alarm Indication [°] appears, return the LCD Monitor to the original position in

order to check the specific content of the Warning/Alarm Indication.
