Techniques for Taking Pictures
In “C” mode, “N” mode and “M” mode, a large number of icons are displayed on the
LCD monitor. If the icons are an annoyance when you are taking pictures, or if you want to
conserve power, you can use the DISPLAY button J to turn the icon display and the LCD
monitor backlighting on and off as required.
With “C”, “N” or “M” selected and the camera ready to shoot, press the DISPLAY button
J to cycle through the LCD monitor display modes, as shown below.
