Framing is super-easy because the new Smart

that is approximately twice as large as the view
offered by our conventional viewfinders. Illuminated
indicators superimposed on the viewfinder image

flash readiness and shutter release. In addition,
dioptric correction lets you adjust viewfinder focus to
suit your personal preference.
