While the power-on lamp is blinking, press the shutter-release button to reactivate the monitor.
• Camera enters standby mode in about a minute (default setting) during shooting or playback

• The time allowed to elapse before the camera enters standby mode can be changed from the
Auto off option (A155) in the setup menu (A 145).
• When the AC Adapter EH-62D (available separately, A169) is connected, a screen saver function
is activated to prevent screen burn when no operations are performed for about a minute (default
setting, A 155).
