Overlaid Display Function

An image saved in your computer can be overlaid on top of the image
displayed in the [Remote Live View window]. As this function allows to
accurately align angles, it is useful when aligning product photos or
shooting several images at the same angle.
Images loaded from your computer are only displayed, and are not
included in the shot.

Professional are also displayed in the condition when they
were shot.
Even with supported image file types, the display of the image as
overlay may not be possible.
