Auto Info Display

If On is selected, the information display will appear after the shutter-release button
is pressed halfway; if image review (0 150) is off, it will also be displayed immediately
after shooting. Choose On if you find yourself frequently referring to the information
display during shooting. If Off is selected, the information display can be viewed by
pressing the P button.

Video Mode

When connecting the camera to a television or VCR, be sure the camera video mode
matches the device video standard (NTSC or PAL).

Flicker Reduction

Reduce flicker and banding when shooting under fluorescent or mercury-vapor
lighting during live view or movie recording. Choose a frequency which matches
that of the local AC power supply.
A
Flicker Reduction
If you are unsure as to the frequency of the local power supply, test both options and choose
the one that produces the best results. Flicker reduction may not produce the desired results
if the subject is very bright, in which case you should select mode A or M and choose a smaller
aperture (larger f-number) before starting live view.
