Notes
•
Do not press the shutter button while standing in front of the camera; this could result in the
subject being out of focus since focusing is performed when the shutter button is pressed
halfway.
Eyepiece cover
When shooting without looking through the viewfinder, attach the eyepiece cover to the
viewfinder to prevent the light entering the viewfinder from changing the exposure. Attach the
eyepiece cover after removing the eyecup as illustrated. The same applies when replacing
with an optional eyecup.
