Using the Monitor
Do not apply excessive force to the monitor when folded out from the camera
body as this could damage the hinge that connects the monitor to the camera.
Closing the Monitor
Closing the monitor while in use will automatically turn off the monitor, and
turn on the viewfinder. Opening the monitor while the viewfinder is in use will
do the opposite. Note, if you press the
/ SEL button and switch to the
viewfinder before closing the monitor, the monitor will not turn on automati-
cally when you open it again. Press the
/ SEL button after opening the moni-
tor to turn it on.
B
/ SEL Button
Pictures can be framed in the monitor or viewfinder.
The monitor and viewfinder display the same con-
tents.
Pressing the
/ SEL button will toggle between the
monitor and viewfinder (which cannot be used si-
multaneously) when the monitor is open. Note that
the
/ SEL button is disabled in
(playback)
mode.
