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 position or 3m
(10ft) 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.
The frame counter cannot exceed
999. When the number of
recordable images exceeds this,
999 will be displayed. The frame
counter will continue to count
down when the number of
recordable images falls below one
thousand.
