Versatile viewing
High-resolution XGA OLED Tru-Finder with 100% field of view
Sony’s new XGA OLED Tru-Finder is easy to view in almost any lighting. Every detail is faithfully
reproduced as it will appear in your recording, including defocusing effects that faithfully reflect
your aperture settings. Since backlighting is eliminated, blacks are blacker, details are clearer and
contrast is higher in both dark and light environments. You can also adjust viewfinder brightness for
comfortable shooting indoors and out. Professional specifications include a wide 33.3° viewing angle,
high 27mm eye-point and 100% frame coverage. Accelerated OLED response virtually eliminates
motion blur and residual images when tracking moving objects or displaying recorded movies. Rich
functionality includes numeric information displays, recorded image playback, and features for
fine-tuning focus on the high-resolution 2,369K (approx.) screen. Even when APS-C format lenses are
mounted, the image is displayed using the entire finder area.

Focus Magnifier for fine-tuning focus
The image in the viewfinder can be magnified up to
11.7x to allow super-fine tuning of the focus. High contrast
is maintained even at high magnification, allowing
accurate viewing of details and confident adjustment
of focus and other settings. This magnification function
is especially useful when shooting in bright sunlight,
which is when the viewfinder is easier to view than the
rear-mounted LCD. The
viewfinder also clearly
displays images when
the Smart Teleconverter
function is used to
magnify the center of
the image 1.4x or 2x.
Faithfully reproduced bokeh
Since images displayed in the viewfinder come directly
from the image sensor, they faithfully reproduce what
will appear in your recorded images. You can therefore
compose the scene and fine-tune every detail with
remarkable accuracy instead of guesswork. Even bokeh
is displayed with all the subtle characteristics that will
appear in your final image. This is a decisive advantage
over optical viewfinders, which display bokeh distorted
by the focusing screen. Whether shooting portraits,
commercial products or close-ups of miniature wonders,
such precision helps you take better photographs.
