Notes on automatic viewfinder/monitor switching

Automatic viewfinder/monitor switching enables the eye sensor to switch the display to the
viewfinder automatically when you bring your eye or an object near it.

If you enable the automatic viewfinder/monitor switching function and display the “On-monitor
recording information screen

(P46)

on the monitor, [Power Save LVF Shooting] in [Economy]

(P222)

can be used, allowing you to reduce the battery consumption.

Eye sensor might not work properly depending on the shape of your eyeglasses, the way you
hold the camera, or bright light shining around the eyepiece. In that case, press [LVF] to switch
the display.

During motion picture playback or a slide show, the camera does not automatically switch the
display to the Viewfinder with the eye sensor.

The eye sensor does not work depending on the angle of the monitor.
