By adjusting the diopter to suit your eyesight, you can see a sharp
viewfinder image even without eyeglasses. The camera’s adjustable
dioptric range is -3 to +1 dpt.
Turn the dioptric adjustment
knob.
¡
Turn the knob left or right so that the
AF points in the viewfinder look sharp.
¡
The illustration shows the knob at the
standard setting (-1 dpt).
Dioptric Adjustment
If the camera’s dioptric adjustment still cannot provide a sharp viewfinder
image, using Dioptric Adjustment Lens E (10 types, optional) is
recommended.
To obtain sharp images, hold the camera still to minimize camera shake.
¡
Firmly grasp the camera grip with your right hand, and press your
both elbows lightly against your body.
¡
Hold the lens bottom with your left hand.
¡
Press the camera against your face and look through the viewfinder.
¡
To maintain a stable stance, place one foot in front of the other
instead of lining up both feet.
