"how can I disable or off view finder on canon EOS RP . when the camera attached to a gimbal the view finder light sensor bothers me very much and some positions I lost my LCD image."

Hi Behnam,

Sorry that you're having an issue with the LCD screen on your Canon RP. I'm not exactly sure of the situation you're facing, but I'll try to give you a suggestion on turning off your Canon RP LCD screen.

Since the Canon RP has an articulating screen the easiest way to make the light from it less annoying would be to simply rotate it around so that it faces inward toward the camera.

Lost Image on LCD Screen

Sorry, but I'm confused as to what you mean by some positions I lost my LCD image. Feel free to comment back so that I might understand better what you're trying to accomplish.

Thanks,
Bruce

I think you misunderstood the question. the problem is that the lcd screen turns off when it thinks one's eye is approaching the viewfinder. Is there a way to disable this?
