Preparing the Camcorder
Attaching and Removing the Eye Cup
Attach the eye cup so that it covers the rubber rim of the viewfinder
unit. To remove the eye cup, pull it gently in a “peeling off” motion
from the bottom up.
• For left eye use, attach the eye cup so that the protruding part
faces the opposite side.
IMPORTANT
• Pointing the viewfinder lens at the sun or other strong light sources
may cause damage to internal components. When you are not using
the viewfinder, make sure to attach the viewfinder cap to the
viewfinder. This will also protect the viewfinder from scratches and
dirt. Attach the viewfinder cap by inserting it into the rubber rim of the
viewfinder unit.
Using the LCD Screen
1 Pull out the LCD panel 90° to the left or right.
2Adjust the LCD panel to the desired angle.
NOTES
• You can invert the image displayed on the screen
according to the LCD panel's position. In mode,
pressing the MIRROR button will switch between the
original image and the image inverted vertically. In
mode, it will switch between the original image and the
image inverted both horizontally and vertically.
