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 his- togram will not be accurate when the monitor image is amplified (p. 34, 104), or the built-in or a compatible Minolta flash unit is used. The histogram of a recorded image may not show the same distribution as the real-time histogram.
To display a grid or scale over the display formats, press and hold the function button (1) and press the display-informa-
tion button to cycle through 1 the options: grid, scale, and
off.
