Because the optical viewfinder and the lens are slightly separated, the image seen
through one is not exactly the same as the other; this is called parallax. Parallax can
cause errors in framing at close distances and is more pronounced at longer focal
lengths. When the subject is closer than 1m (3ft) at the wide-angle lens positions or 3m
(9.8ft) at the telephoto lens position, use the LCD monitor to compose the image;
because the lens creates the monitor image, it does not suffer from parallax.
Located on the top of the camera
body, the data panel shows the
status of the camera. All icons
have been shown for clarity.
The frame counter cannot
exceed 999. When the num-
ber of recordable images
exceeds this, 999 will be dis-
played. The frame counter
will continue to count down
when the number of record-
able images falls below one
thousand.
