About the LCD monitor/Optional Live Viewfinder
• Do not press the LCD monitor with excessive force. Uneven colors may appear on the LCD
monitor and it may malfunction.
•
If the camera is cold when you turn it on, the picture on the LCD monitor/Optional Live
Viewfinder will be slightly darker than usual at first. However, the picture will return to normal
brightness when the internal temperature of the camera increases.
Extremely high precision technology is employed to produce the LCD monitor/Optional
Live Viewfinder screen. However there may be some dark or bright spots (red, blue or
green) on the screen. This is not a malfunction. The LCD monitor/Optional Live
Viewfinder screen has more than 99.99% effective pixels with a mere 0.01% of the
pixels inactive or always lit. The spots will not be recorded on pictures on a card.
