LCD Monitor Brightness
The brightness of the LCD monitor can be adjusted to better suit the
shooting conditions. When shooting in dark conditions, the camera will also
automatically brighten the LCD monitor.
LCD Monitor Brightness Settings
The brightness of the LCD monitor can be changed in the following two
ways.
• Changing Settings Using the Set up Menu (p. 54)
• Changing Settings Using the DISP. Button (Quick-bright LCD Function)
Pressing the DISP. button for at least 1 second switches the brightness to
the highest setting. Pressing it again for at least 1 second restores it to the
original setting.
If you set the brightness to the highest setting using this method and
turn the camera power off, the brightness setting will revert to the value
set in the Set up menu.
Night Display
When shooting in dark conditions, the camera automatically brightens the
LCD monitor to suit the brightness of the subject*, making it easier to
frame the subject.
* Noise will appear, and the movements of the subject will appear irregular in the LCD
monitor. The brightness of the image displayed in the monitor, and the brightness of the
actual image recorded will be different.
