Adjusting the Viewfinder Diopter

You can adjust the viewfinder diopter to suit your eyesight. 

The Eyecup F

R

 is attached to the viewfinder portion when the camera 

leaves the factory. The diopter can be adjusted with the eyecup attached. 

However, adjustment is easier with the eyecup removed. 

1

Remove the eyecup by pulling it out 

in the direction of the arrow. 

2

Look through the viewfinder and 

slide the diopter adjustment lever 

left or right. 

Adjust the lever until the AF frame 

in the viewfinder is focused. 
Point the camera at a white wall or 

other bright and consistent surface. 

If it is difficult to see the viewfinder image clearly even if you use the diopter 

adjustment lever, use the optional diopter correction lens adapter M. However, 

the Eyecup F

R

 must be removed to use this adapter.
