Fujifilm FinePix S8500 4004859 User Manual

The electronic viewfinder provides the same information as the monitor, 
and can be used when bright lighting conditions make the display in the 
monitor difficult to see.  To switch between the monitor and electronic 
viewfinder, press the EVF/LCD button (your selection remains in effect 
when the camera is turned off or the mode dial is rotated to another 
setting).

   Bright Ambient Lighting
Reflections and glare caused by bright ambient lighting may make it hard to see the display in the monitor, 
particularly when the camera is used outdoors. This can be addressed by holding the EVF/LCD button to trigger 
outdoor mode. Outdoor mode can also be enabled using the 

T MONITOR SUNLIGHT MODE option in the 

setup menu (

P 98). 

The camera is equipped with diopter adjustment to accommodate indi-
vidual differences in vision.  Slide the diopter adjustment control up and 
down until the viewfinder display is in sharp focus. 

3 
Strong sunlight focused through the viewfinder may damage the panel of electronic viewfinder (EVF).  Do not 
aim the electronic viewfinder at the sun.
