2. Autofocus target area
{
When shooting in

NOTE :
Composing using image in Viewfinder.
When composing a picture using the image in the Viewfinder, the actual image recorded is shifted slightly (due to a
phenomenon known as parallax) compared to the image in the Viewfinder. Especially when shooting close-ups, the
effect of parallax becomes more pronounced and the edges of the image seen in the Viewfinder image may not be
included. Use of the Monitor is therefore recommended for close-up (Macro) shooting at distances of less than 90
cm/35 in. The parallax compensation marks in the Viewfinder indicate the compensation required when the subject to
camera distance is 60 cm/24 in.
Zoom button

Use the
ZOOM
