DISPLAY INFORMATION BUTTON

The display information button controls what information is displayed with the live image. Each time the button is pressed, the display cycles to the next format: standard display, real-time histogram, focus frame, and live image only.

Standard display

Real-time histogram Focus frame only

Live image only

The real-time histogram shows the approximate luminance distribution of the live image. This histogram will not be accurate when the monitor image is amplified (p. 32, 101), or the built-in or a compatible flash unit (p. 91) is used. The histogram of a recorded image may not show the same distribution as the real-time histogram.

Scale

To display a grid or scale over the display formats, press and hold the shift button (1) and press the display information button to cycle through the options: grid, scale, and off.
