attached; frame color (red/white) selectable in menu.
Parallax compensation
The horizontal and vertical difference between the viewfinder and
the lens is automatically compensated according to the relevant
distance setting, i.e. the viewfinder bright-line automatically aligns
with the subject detail recorded by the lens.
