About the Monitor/Viewfinder
Extremely high precision technology is employed to produce the Monitor/
Viewfinder screen. However there may be some dark or bright spots (red, blue or 
green) on the screen. This is not a malfunction. Though the Monitor/Viewfinder 
screen parts are produced with highly controlled precision technology, some 
pixels may be inactive or always lit. The spots will not be recorded on pictures 
on a card.
