Battery-saver mode

In this mode, the digital back is fully responsive, so you can take pictures but the screen
is not lit up, thereby saving battery power.
You can enter the menu system while shooting in this mode (which activates the screen
until you exit the menu system again) but the approva l, zoom and navigator button s
have no eect.
You can also save battery power by turning down the brightness and/or contrast of
the display using the entries of the MAIN MENU > SETTINGS > USER INTERFACE >
DISPLAY menu. See Making Display Settings for details.
Other ways to save battery power include setting a display time-out and/or a power-
down time-out (each of these is disabled by default). Use MAIN MENU > SETTINGS
> USER INTERFACE > Power Down to set a power-down time out. Use MAIN MENU
> SETTINGS > USER INTERFACE > DISPLAY > Timeout to set a display time-out. See
also Entries of the USER INTERFACE Menu and Making Display Settings for details
about these settings.

Full-Screen Mode 1

In full-screen mode, you can browse your images at standard preview resolution without
any distracting data surrou nding them.
Because the cur rent approval settin g is not shown in ful l-screen mode, the approva l
button has no eect. is will prevent you from accidentally assigning the wrong status
without knowing it.

Overexposure indicator 2

ough the histogram shows you when some of your pixels are overexposed, it does not
tell you which ones. In a shot wit h many bright areas, it ca n be hard to know whether
the key parts of your image are just brig ht or completely overexposed. To help you nd
them, the digita l back can provide an overexposure indicator, which shows precisely
which areas of your shot are overexposed (i.e., pi xels that are at maximum br ightness,
thereby eliminating detai ls).
When enabled, the overexpos ure indicator ashes the overexposed pixels from blac k
to white.
To enable or disable the overexposure indicator, use the MAIN MENU > S ETTINGS >
USER INTERFACE > Mark Overexp. entry.
There is also a one-button short-
cut for toggling the overexpo-
sure marker on and o.
To use it, p ress and hold
until the indicator is working
as you would like (enabled or
disabled).
