A: Power LCD indication

When you take pictures, the LCD monitor automatically reverts back to the normal brightness 30 seconds after the [DISPLAY/PWR LCD] button is pressed. If you press any button, the LCD monitor turns on brightly again.

If you press and hold [DISPLAY/PWR LCD] button for 1 second again, the power LCD function is cancelled and the LCD monitor reverts back to its usual brightness.

In the power LCD function, the brightness and colour tone are emphatically displayed on the LCD monitor. Therefore, the brightness and the colour tone may look different from those in real life depending on the subject. However, this function does not affect recorded pictures.

nHighlight display

When setting [HIGHLIGHT] to [ON] on the [SETUP] menu (P24) while the auto review or review function is activated, any white saturated area (extremely bright or glistening part) on the picture appears blinking in black and white.

If you compensate the exposure to minus, referring to the histogram and then take a picture again, it may result in a good picture.
