Image Seen in Viewfinder vs. Recorded Image
Please note that the actual image may differ from the image seen in the
optical viewfinder due to the physical separation between the viewfinder
and lens. This is called the parallax phenomenon and is more noticeable
the closer the subject is to the lens. In some cases, portions of images
shot up close that appear in the viewfinder will not appear in the recorded
image. Please use the LCD monitor to shoot images up close.
Shooting with an Off-Center AF Frame Selected

have selected an off-center AF frame. When setting the AF frame to the
desired position to shoot an image, please use the LCD monitor (See
