About the LCD monitor display when recording 
yourself (the lens and LCD monitor are facing you)
• The LCD monitor displays a mirror image of the subject.
• You can check the image in the viewfinder. (You can also set the viewfinder 
to “On” at all times, regardless of the orientation of the LCD monitor (p.57–
60).)
• The remaining battery charge indicator will only appear when battery power is 
almost gone. The battery charge indicator flashes red in this case. 
• A warning message will not be displayed (p.132). When any of the following 
icons light in the LCD monitor, you can confirm the warning message by 
rotating the LCD monitor 180° back to its normal orientation.
• When the LCD monitor is in this position, you can also use the LCD monitor 
as a light source when recording in dark locations (Assist Light, p.69).
You can use the viewfinder when the LCD monitor is closed or during mirror 
image recording.
To set the viewfinder to “On” at all times regardless of the orientation of the LCD 
monitor, or to adjust the brightness or color density, see "How to use the LCD/
EVF setup and initial setup" (p.60).
