About the <E> icon
If Live View shooting is done under direct sunlight or other hot
environments, the <E> icon (warning for the camera’s high internal
temperature) may appear on the screen. If Live View shooting continues
with a high internal temperature, it may degrade image quality. You
should therefore stop Live View shooting if the warning icon appears.
If you use a hard disk-type card and continue Live View shooting while
the <E> warning icon is displayed, the camera’s internal temperature
will further increase and the Live View shooting will then stop
automatically. Live View shooting will be disabled until the camera’s
internal temperature decreases.
The histogram and <g> icon are displayed when [Exposure
simulation] has been set as explained in step 5 on page 108. If <g>
is blinking, it indicates that the Live View image is not being displayed at
the suitable brightness due to low or bright light conditions. However, the
captured image will reflect the exposure setting.
If flash is used or bulb is set, the <g> icon and histogram will be
grayed out (for your reference). The histogram might not be properly
displayed in low light or bright light conditions.
