Proximity sensor
This infrared sensor automatically deactivates the MVF-1's internal OLED panel when
you withdraw your eye. The sensor is placed either on the bottom left-hand side of the
viewfinder (Generation 1), or it is integrated in the eye cup (Generation 2).
The Alexa Mini MVF-1 contains the generation 2 proximity sensor.
NOTICE
To avoid hardware damage, always keep the sensor unobstructed.
