Before Using Your Camera

Understanding Color Balance
Distribution of color intensity is displayed for each color in the RGB histogram.
The right side of the graphs look similar for images that have the white
balance adjusted well. If only one color is lopsided to the left, that color is too
intense.
1Setting the White Balance (p.124)
The following indicators appear on the monitor to indicate the keys,

The image on the monitor may differ from the captured image if the
brightness of the subject is low or high.
If any changes occur in the light source during shooting, the image may flicker.
You can cut down on flicker by setting the power frequency in [Flicker
Reduction] (p.184) of the [
R
Set-up 1] menu to that used in your region.
If the camera position is changed rapidly during shooting, the image may not
be displayed with the appropriate brightness. Wait for the display to become
stable before shooting.
Noise may appear on the monitor image when used in dark locations.
If you continue shooting for a prolonged period, the internal temperature of
the camera may increase, resulting in lower quality images. It is
recommended that you turn off the camera when not shooting. To prevent the
image quality from degrading, allow enough time for the camera to cool down
while shooting with long exposures or recording movies.
The higher the sensitivity, the more noise and color unevenness may occur in
the monitor image and/or captured image.
Images cannot be displayed on the monitor while data is being saved to an
SD Memory Card.
