Introduction—Getting to Know the COOLPIX885
Pictures can be framed in the viewfinder or in
the monitor. Note that when your subject is
within 1.5 m (4.9 ft.) of the camera, the final
picture will differ slightly from the image seen
in the viewfinder. Use the monitor when your
subject is close to the camera.
The two lights next to the viewfinder provide a guide to camera status while you
frame your picture.
