in Dark Conditions
during Shooting
The display automatically brightens when shooting in dark conditions,
allowing you to check the composition (Night Display function). However, the
brightness of the image on the screen, and the brightness of the actual
image recorded may be different. Screen noise may appear and the
movement of the subject may appear somewhat jagged on the screen. This
has no effect on the recorded image.
Overexposure Warning during Playback
In "Detailed Information Display" (p. 43), overexposed areas of the image
flash on the screen.
Histogram during Playback
High @ The graph that appears in "Detailed
Information Display" (p. 43) is called the
histogram. The histogram shows the
distribution and amount of brightness of an
Low image. When the graph approaches the right
side, the image is bright, but when it
approaches the left side, the image is dark,
and in this way you can judge the exposure.
