Attaching the Viewfinder

CAUTION
When the viewfinder is attached, do not leave the
camcorder with the eyepiece facing the sun. Direct
sunlight can enter through the eyepiece, be focused in the
viewfinder and cause fire.

Attaching the Supplied Viewfinder

Note
When attaching the viewfinder, make notes of the
following points.
• Be sure to power off the camcorder before coupling the
viewfinder connector to the camcorder's VF connector
(26-pin). If you make this connection when the
camcorder power is on, the viewfinder may not
function properly.
• Couple the viewfinder connector firmly to the
camcorder's VF connector (26-pin). If the coupling is
loose, noise may appear on the video or the tally
indicator may not operate properly.
