Display for Shooting in Dark Conditions during Shooting
The display automatically brightens when shooting in dark conditions,
allowing you to check the composition (Night Display function). However, the
brightness of the image on the screen, and the brightness of the actual
image recorded may be different. Noise may appear and the movement of
the subject on the screen may appear somewhat jagged. This has no effect
on the recorded image.
Overexposure Warning during Playback
In “Detailed Information Display” (p. 43), overexposed areas of the image
flash on the screen.
Histogram
●
The graph that appears in “Detailed Information
Display” (p. 43), and “Shoot While Checking the
Histogram” (p. 77) is called the histogram. The
histogram shows the distribution and amount of
brightness of an image. When the graph
approaches the right side, the image is bright, but
when it approaches the left side, the image is dark,
and in this way you can check the exposure.
The indicators on the back of the camera (p. 41) will light or blink under the
following conditions.

When the indicator blinks green, data is being recorded to/read from the
memory card or various information is being transmitted. Do not turn off
the power, open the memory card slot/battery cover, shake or jolt the
camera. These actions may corrupt the image data, or cause the camera
or memory card to malfunction.
