Display 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. Screen noise may appear and the
movement of the subject may appear somewhat jagged on the screen. 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
judge the exposure.
To save battery power, the camera shuts down automatically when it is not
operated for a certain time.
Power Saving during Shooting
The monitor will turn off approximately 1 minute after the camera is last
operated. After about 2 more minutes, the lens will retract and the power will
turn off. When the monitor has turned off but the lens has not retracted yet,
pressing the shutter button halfway (p. 21) turns on the monitor and shooting
can continue.
Power Saving during Playback
The power will turn off approximately 5 minutes after the camera is last
operated.
