Eyepiece cover

When shooting without looking through the viewfinder, such as when using the

self-timer, attach the eyepiece cover to the viewfinder so that the light does not

enter the viewfinder. To attach the eyepiece cover, remove the eyecup from

the camera as illustrated. To attach the optional eyecup, follow the same

procedure.

Notes

• Do not press the shutter button while standing in front of the camera; this could

result in the subject being out of focus since focusing is performed when the shutter

button is pressed halfway.
