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 shutter
When shooting without looking through the viewfinder,
close the eyepiece shutter to block the viewfinder so
that light does not enter the viewfinder and change the
exposure. Lift the eyepiece shutter lever.
By using the optional remote control (RM-1), you can take a picture with yourself in it or a
night scene without touching the camera.
The camera can be set to release the shutter either right away or 2 seconds after the shutter
button on the remote control is pressed. Bulb shooting is also possible when using the
optional remote control.
For the setting method, see “Sequential shooting” (
gP. 59).
