•
Do not apply excessive force to the monitor.
•
Use the image on the monitor only to compose the shot. The monitor is not
designed to show details such as the focus or exposure.
•
Using the monitor to take pictures increases the time required to write pictures
to the card.
•
When the subject is at an angle to the camera, the edges of the image may
appear jagged on the monitor. This is not a malfunction.
•
Light may appear in bands at the top and bottom of the monitor. This is not a
malfunction.
•
When you are shooting in bright conditions, such as in sunlight, vertical
streaks (or smears) may appear on the monitor. If the image is difficult
to see, use the optical viewfinder.
•
Though you can take pictures using the monitor, using the optical viewfinder
tends to reduce camera movement and makes shooting easier. Switching the
monitor off also reduces battery consumption, allowing you to take pictures for
longer.
•
The actual image shot is slightly larger than the image you see in the
viewfinder or on the monitor.
