Shooting in Live View

To prevent light entering via the viewfinder from interfering with
photographs or exposure, close the viewfinder eyepiece shutter
(

0 119).

Although they will not appear in the final picture, jagged edges, color
fringing, moiré, and bright spots may appear in the monitor, while
bright bands may appear in some areas with flashing signs and other
intermittent light sources or if the subject is briefly illuminated by a
strobe or other bright, momentary light source. In addition, distortion
may occur if the camera is panned horizontally or an object moves at
high speed through the frame. Flicker and banding visible in the
monitor under fluorescent, mercury vapor, or sodium lamps can be
reduced using the Flicker reduction option in the movie shooting
menu (

0 290), although they may still be visible in the final

photograph at some shutter speeds. When shooting in live view, avoid
pointing the camera at the sun or other strong light sources. Failure to
observe this precaution could result in damage to the camera’s internal
circuitry.

Regardless of the option selected for Custom Setting c2 (Standby
timer
,

0 296), the standby timer will not expire during shooting.
