Shooting Technique Depends on Distance to the Subject

Deciding whether to use the viewfinder or the monitor display to set up

a shot depends on the distance between you and your subject.

Determine the approximate distance before taking the picture.

For snapshots and long-range photography (from approx. 1.5m

to ∞):

We recommend using the viewfinder.

For close-ups (from 0.8m to approx. 1.5m):

Although you can use the viewfinder to take pictures, in some cases it

is better to use the monitor. See below for details.

For extreme close-ups (0.2m ~ 0.8m):

We recommend using the macro mode for taking pictures extremely

close-up. Although it is possible to take such shots without using the

macro mode, determining proper exposure and focus is much more

difficult.

Characteristics of the viewfinder and the monitor

You can use either the monitor or the viewfinder to determine the

proper shooting range. Consider the following when deciding

whether to use the viewfinder or the monitor for a particular shot:

Viewfinder

Advantage: You can check the proper subject composition with less

camera movement.

Disadvantage: Close-up photography causes inconsistencies between

the picture frame as seen in the viewfinder and the actual edge of

the picture.

Monitor

Advantage: You can check the subject composition more accurately.

Disadvantage: It is more difficult to hold the camera steady, and

battery life is decreased.
