Recording a picture

Adjusting the viewfinder

If you record pictures with the LCD panel closed, check the picture with the viewfinder. Adjust the viewfinder lens to your eyesight so that the images in the viewfinder come into sharp focus.

Lift up the viewfinder and move the viewfinder lens adjustment lever.

Viewfinder backlight

You can change the brightness of the backlight. Select VF B.L. in the menu settings when using the battery pack (p. 202).

Attaching the supplied lens hood

To record fine pictures under strong light, we recommend attaching the lens hood. Also the lens cap can be attached even with the lens hood on.

Note

You cannot attach filters or other objects onto the lens hood.

If you forcibly attach these objects onto the lens hood, you will no longer be able to remove filters or other objects from the hood.

When you use the filter (optional)

The shadow of the lens hood may appear in the corners of the screen.
