Shooting with the viewfinder (OVF)
You can select either the LCD monitor (Live View) or the viewfinder
(OVF) to shoot images.
When you look into the viewfinder, the subject located in the AF area
comes into focus automatically (Eye-Start AF).

A1AM Angle Finder (sold separately), or the FDA-ME1AM Magnifying
Eyepiece (sold separately) to the camera, setting [Eye-Start AF] to [Off]
is recommended because the eyepiece sensors located below the
viewfinder may be activated.

malfunction.
