Optical Viewfinder - Canon PowerShot G15 User Manual

Optical Viewfinder

To conserve battery power when shooting, you can use the optical
viewfinder instead of the screen. Shoot the same way as when using the
screen.
• The area visible in the optical viewfinder may differ slightly from
the image area in your shots.
•
At aspect ratios other than 4:3, the area visible in the optical
viewfinder differs from the image area in your shots. Check the
settings before shooting.
•
The lens may be partially visible through the optical viewfinder at some zoom
positions.
• Although the camera automatically focuses on subjects, face detection and
focusing is not possible.
• Continuous shooting is not supported in <A> mode, because the camera
will not determine the shooting scene.
