Step 5: Adjusting the LCD screen and viewfinder
The LCD screen can be rotated in the range
as illustrated below, allowing a person other
than the camera operator to see the image.
When using the viewfinder, extend it and
position your eye near it.
If you extend the viewfinder while the LCD
screen is open, the display switches from
the LCD screen to the viewfinder when you
position your eye near the viewfinder.
If the viewfinder image appears blurred,
turn the diopter adjustment dial next to the
viewfinder until the image is sharp.
b
Note
The LCD screen and the viewfinder do not
operate at the same time.
When the picture in the viewfinder is
hard to see
If you cannot see the picture in the
viewfinder clearly under bright
circumstances, use the supplied large
eyecup. To attach the large eyecup, stretch
it slightly and fit it over the groove of the
eyecup attached to the camcorder. You can
attach the large eyecup facing either the
right or left side.
b
Note
• If the viewfinder is extended while the NP-
FV100A battery pack (sold separately) is
attached, the large eyecup and battery pack may
interfere with each other slightly. However, this
does not affect the functionality of the
camcorder.
