Notes on display and backlight
• The Control panel and the fluorescent lamps used in the LCD monitor have
a limited service life. If they begin to darken or flicker, contact your nearest
service center.
• In cold conditions, the display backlight may be slow to come on or may
change color suddenly. To avoid this, keep the camera warm when using in
cold temperatures. Backlight performance will return to normal under normal
temperature conditions.
• When the color LCD monitor shows different pictures, some pixels may not
change color and remain on or off. This phenomenon may be due to a lag in
some circuits, but is considered to be within the normal operating tolerances
of the LCD monitor. In addition, the brightness of the color LCD monitor may
vary between pictures.
