• The LCD display on this camera is manufactured with sophisticated technology, and more
than 99.99% of the pixels on the LCD display meet standard specifications. Yet, it is possible
that less than 0.01% of the pixels on the LCD display may have some light spots or show
unusual colors. This is normal and does not indicate display malfunction, nor will this affect

are properly exposed.
