warning appears.

•When a dark object is barely visible in the viewfinder. The low-contrast warning appears.

•When the scene contains small patterns or identical patterns that are regularly repeated.

•When the scene is affected by sunbeams or light reflecting off the surface of a body of water.

•When shooting a scene with a high-contrast background.
