Introduction About the LCD monitor display when recording yourself (the lens and LCD monitor are facing you) • The LCD monitor displays a mirror image of the subject. • You can check the image in the viewfinder. (You can also set the viewfinder to "On" at all times, regardless of the orientation of the LCD monitor (p.57- 60).) • The remaining battery charge indicator will only appear when battery power is almost gone. The battery charge indicator flashes red in this case. • A warning message will not be displayed (p.132). When any of the following icons light in the LCD monitor, you can confirm the warning message by rotating the LCD monitor 180° back to its normal orientation. • When the LCD monitor is in this position, you can also use the LCD monitor as a light source when recording in dark locations (Assist Light, p.69). Recording/Playing Using the Viewfinder You can use the viewfinder when the LCD monitor is closed or during mirror image recording. To set the viewfinder to "On" at all times regardless of the orientation of the LCD monitor, or to adjust the brightness or color density, see "How to use the LCD/ EVF setup and initial setup" (p.60). How to use the viewfinder Pull out the viewfinder until it clicks. Slide the diopter control knob to adjust the focus to suit your eyesight. Note Focusing will not be correct unless the viewfinder is pulled fully out. 20
