Information Displayed on the LCD Monitor

When shooting or playing back images, the shooting information or play back information appears on the LCD monitor.

Shooting Mode

When setting the flash, continuous mode, self-timer, macro mode, infinity mode, or the metering method, the shooting information displays on the LCD monitor for approximately 6 seconds even if the LCD monitor is set to [Standard (No Information)] or [Off]. (It may not display under some circumstances, depending on the selected settings.)

A slow shutter speed has likely been selected because of insufficient lighting if the upper indicator beside the viewfinder blinks orange after the metering preparations are complete and the camera shake icon appears in the LCD monitor. Set the flash to or , or affix the camera to a tripod to shoot.

• Right after a shot is taken, the image and its information appear in the LCD monitor for 2 seconds (or for the number of seconds selected if the review time was changed (2 - 10 sec.)) even if you release the shutter button. If the SET button is pressed while an image is displayed, it will continue to display (p. 54)

While a recorded image is displayed on the LCD monitor, you can check the exposure with the graph (see Histogram Function p.37) that shows the distribution of the brightness data. If the exposure requires adjustment, set the exposure compensation and reshoot.

(Press the DISP. button if the histogram and other information is not shown)
