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 during Playback
●
The graph that appears in “Detailed
Information Display” (p. 43) 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.

the power, open the memory card slot/battery cover, shake or jolt the

or memory card to malfunction.
