No Picture

After shooting, play the picture back in the monitor to ensure that the
photograph has been recorded. In hand held mode, note that the
sound the mirror makes when the shutter-release button is pressed
halfway or the

B button is pressed can be mistaken for the sound of

the shutter, and that if single-servo AF is used, a photograph will only be
recorded if the camera is able to focus.

Shooting in Live View Mode

Although they will not appear in the final picture, banding or distortion
may be visible in the monitor under fluorescent, mercury vapor, or
sodium lamps or if the camera is panned horizontally or if an object
moves at high speed through the frame. Bright light sources may leave
after-images in the monitor when the camera is panned. Bright spots
may also appear. When shooting in live view mode, 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.

Live view shooting ends automatically if the lens is removed.

Live view mode can be used for up to an hour.
Note, however, that when used in live view
mode for extended periods, the camera may
become noticeably warm and its internal
temperature may rise, resulting in image noise
and unusual colors.

To prevent damage to the

camera’s internal circuits, live view shooting will
end automatically before the camera overheats.

A count-down display

will appear in the monitor 30 s before shooting ends.

At high ambient

temperatures, this display may appear immediately when live view
mode is selected.

During live view, the camera displays the shutter speed and aperture in
effect at the start of live view. Exposure is metered again when the
shutter-release button is pressed all the way down.
Metering can not be changed during live view. Choose a metering
method before starting live view. To reduce blur in tripod mode, choose
On for Custom Setting d10 (Exposure delay mode, 0 278).
