It delivers a crisp focus even when the photographic subject is slightly off-center. Image Seen in Viewfinder vs. Recorded Image When shooting an image, a larger range than the one visible in the viewfinder usually gets recorded. You can confirm the actual range that will be recorded in the LCD monitor. In addition, due to the viewfinder's specification, the range visible in the viewfinder may actually differ from the actual recorded image. The closer the subject is to the lens, the more noticeable the difference will be. In some cases, portions of images shot up close that appear in the viewfinder will not appear in the recorded image. You are recommended to use the LCD monitor during macro photography (p. 44). 35
