The viewfinder contains two frames. The frame on the left is used when
taking pictures at a range of 65 cm (two feet) or more, that on the right
when composing photographs for macro close-up at ranges of 14 – 23 cm
(5.5˝ – 9˝). The READY lamp, which indicates whether or not the camera
is ready to take photographs, is located below the viewfinder eyepiece.
