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. 46), overexposed areas of the image flash on the screen.
Histogram during Playback | ||
| High | z The graph that appears in Detailed |
|
| Information Display (p. 173) is called the |
|
| histogram. The histogram shows the |
| Low | distribution of brightness in an image |
| horizontally, and the amount of brightness | |
Dark |
| |
Bright | 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. |
