Preparing the Camcorder
25
• If you wear glasses, you may find the viewfinder easier to
use if you flip back the outer edge of the eye cup toward
the camcorder body.
NOTES
• Make sure you keep the eye cup attached when using the camcorder.
• For details about how to take care of the viewfinder, refer to Handling Precautions (A 167),
Cleaning (A 171).
Adjusting the OLED Screen
Open the OLED panel 90 degrees.
• You can rotate the panel 90 degrees downward.
• You can rotate the panel 180 degrees toward the lens. Rotating the OLED panel 180 degrees can
be useful in the following cases:
- To allow the subject to monitor the OLED screen while you use the viewfinder.
- To allow the camcorder to be operated with the wireless controller from the front.
NOTES
• When you rotate the OLED panel, video noise may appear on the screen momentarily. This is not a
malfunction.
• You can adjust the brightness of the OLED screen with the q > [OLED Brightness] setting or
by holding D pressed down for more than 2 seconds. You can also adjust the brightness of the
viewfinder with the q
> [VF Brightness] setting.
• Adjusting the brightness does not affect the brightness of the recordings.
• Using a brighter setting will shorten the effective usage time of the battery pack.
• For details about how to take care of the touch screen, refer to Handling Precautions (A 167),
Cleaning (A 171).
