Using the Touch Panel
Touch panel usage precautions
The viewfinder of the unit is a touch panel, which you operate directly by touch using your finger.
The touch panel is designed to be touched lightly with your finger. Do not press the panel with force or touch it using sharp-edged or pointed objects (nail, ballpoint pen, pin, etc.).
The touch panel may not respond when touched in the following circumstances. Also note that these may cause a malfunction.
- Operation using the tips of finger nails
- Operation while other objects are touching the screen surface
- Operation with a protective sheet or sticker attached
- Operation with water droplets or condensation on the display
