Indicator
Screen Display in Dark Shooting Conditions
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 of brightness in an image
horizontally, and the amount of brightness
vertically. 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.
Indicator
The indicator on the top of the camera (p. 42) will light or blink depending on
the camera’s status.

When the indicator blinks green, data is being recorded to/read from the
memory card or various information is being transmitted. Do not turn off
the power, open the memory card slot/battery cover, shake or jolt the
camera. These actions may corrupt the image data or cause the camera
or memory card to malfunction.
