Preparing the Camera Adjust the viewfinder E • In record pause mode, adjust the viewfinder focusing lever to suit your eyesight. • The viewfinder extends straight out for comfortable viewing. Store the camera with the viewfinder flush with the body of the camera. • To view with the viewfinder, make sure the LCD panel is either turned so that the subject can monitor viewing, or totally closed with the screen facing inwards. Prepare the lens cap • Attach the cord to the lens cap, and pass the grip belt through the loop on the cord. • Hook the lens cap on to the grip belt while you are recording, and place it over the lens when you have finished. Fasten the grip belt • Release the Velcro fastening and hold the camera with your right hand while you adjust the belt with your left. • The Variable Angle Belt's lower portion moves, allowing for easier shooting at varied angles. Attach the shoulder strap • For extra security and portability, attach the shoulder strap before using the camera. • Pass the ends through the attachment bars and adjust the length as shown. Additional Information Note: • Be careful not to leave the viewfinder exposed to bright sunlight, or it will melt. (The light is concentrated by the viewfinder lens.) When not using the viewfinder, return it to its retracted position. 85
