MONITOR AMPLIFICATION

The monitor amplification options control the display of the live image. Monitor amplification has two settings:

Auto - in low-light conditions when the camera-sensitivity gain has reached its limit, the automatic monitor-amplification function will intensify the monitor image. Although the live image turns black and white, this does not affect the color mode in use.

When the automatic monitor amplification activates, the Flex Digital Magnifier (p. 105) cannot be used. If the real-time histogram (p. 45) is used, it will reflect the amplified image and not the final values of the exposure.

Normal - the monitor image is not amplified in low light.

When using the manual (M) exposure mode (p. 56), two other options are available:

Exposure priority - the live image reflects the set exposure. Automatic monitor amplification is disabled.

Display priority - the live images is displayed regardless of the exposure settings. This allow the image to be composed on the monitor when using flash as the main light source. When selected, the manual exposure mode indicator turns red on the monitor.
