Active Brightness Control Viewfinder
This new system provides the advantages of both conventional segmented LED and LCD, ensuring brighter and clearer viewing with outstanding light transmittance. This was made possible by using new technology that detects light conditions and, when necessary, automatically turns on the orange LED illumination, and adjusts its brightness for maximised visibility and contrast.
