X-pro1 Frameline Moving...........

[Paul Cheeseman]

i have recently moved to using the OVF on my x-pro1 pretty much all the time as i was being lazy and just using the EVF too much.

i have noticed that when i half press the shutter button, the frameline jumps to another position in the OVF but the focus point rectangle stays in its original position. the frameline moves in a downwards and to the right direction.

any ideas anyone.

That's parallax correction. You will probably notice it moves more when you focus closer?

It is to compensate for the veiwfinder being offset from the lens.
