Taking Pictures

Taking Pictures using the LCD Monitor

- You can take a picture while looking at the LCD monitor as through the
viewfinder.
- Using the LCD monitor consumes battery power at a high rate, so it is
recommended to have a spare charged battery on hand (sold separately,
Lithium-ion Battery NP-500), or to use the AC adapter (sold separately,
AC-8U/AC-8E/AC-8GB; see P.11 for details).
