In single-image mode, still images at a 4:3 and 3:2 aspect ratio are played at a 16:9 aspect ratio.
In this case the top and bottom of the image will be slightly cropped.
• Wide Zoom is not available for movies or 16:9 images.
A histogram is a graph showing the brightness of an image. The graph display indicates a bright
image when skewed to the right side, and a dark image when skewed to the left side.
• The histogram also appears when playing back a single image, but you cannot adjust the exposure.
• The histogram does not appear while recording movies, playing back movies, viewing vertical
orientation images, rotating still images, using Temporarily Rotated Display, or using Wide Zoom (4:3,
3:2).
• A large difference in the histogram displayed during shooting and playback may occur when:
– The flash strobes.
– The shutter speed is slow or fast.
• The histogram may not appear for images recorded using other cameras.
This sets the brightness of the LCD screen. When viewing images in bright outside light if
[Brightness] is set to [Normal], reset to [Bright]. However, the battery power may decrease faster
under such condition.
You can set the number of images displayed in index screen to 12 or 20 images.
