General Live View Shooting Cautions
Live View ImageUnder low- or bright-light conditions, the Live View image may not reflect 
the brightness of the captured image.
 Even if a low ISO speed is set, noise may be noticeable in the displayed 
Live View image under low light. However, when you shoot, the image 
recorded will have less noise. (The image quality of the Live View image 
is different from that of the recorded image.)
 If the light source (illumination) within the image changes, the screen 
may flicker. If this happens, exit Live View shooting and resume Live 
View shooting under the actual light source.
 If you point the camera in a different direction, it may throw off the Live 
View image’s correct brightness momentarily. Wait until the brightness 
level stabilizes before shooting.
 If there is a very bright light source in the image, the bright area may 
appear black on the LCD monitor. However, the actual captured image 
will correctly show the bright area.
 In low light, if you set the [ 52: LCD brightness ] to a bright setting, noise 
or irregular colors may appear in the Live View image. However, the 
noise or irregular colors will not be recorded in the captured image.
 When you magnify the image, the image sharpness may look more 
pronounced than in the actual image.
Custom FunctionsDuring Live View shooting, certain Custom Function settings will not take 
effect (p.411).
Lens and FlashIf the attached lens has an Image Stabilizer and you set the Image 
Stabilizer (IS) switch to < 1>, the Image Stabilizer will operate at all 
times even if you do not press the shutter button halfway. The Image 
Stabilizer consumes battery power  and may decrease the number of 
possible shots depending on the shooting conditions. When the Image 
Stabilizer is not necessary, such as when using a tripod, it is 
recommended to set the IS switch to < 2>.
 The focus preset function is possible for Live View shooting only when 
using a (super) telephoto lens equipped with the focus preset mode 
released in and after the second half of 2011.
 FE lock will not work if the built-in flash is used. FE lock and modeling 
flash will not work if an ex ternal Speedlite is used.

Also, the scene icon for the scene detected by the camera is displayed 
on the upper left (p.297).
 In the < s>, < f >, and < F> shooting modes, the settings will be the 
same as when shooting in the < d> mode.
 Settable menu functions differ between Basic Zone modes and Creative 
Zone modes (p.477).
 In Creative Zone modes, you can press the < A> button (p.203) to lock 
the exposure (AE lock). After applying AE lock during movie shooting, 
you can cancel it by pressing the < S> button. (AE lock setting is 
retained until you press the < S> button.)
 In Creative Zone modes, you can set the < R> switch downward 
and turn the < 5> dial to set the exposure compensation.
 If you shoot a movie with autoexposure, the ISO speed, shutter speed, 
and aperture will not be recorded in the movie’s Exif information.
 With autoexposure (modes other than  a) movie shooting, the camera 
will automatically turn on the Speedlite’s LED light under low-light 
conditions. For details, refer to the instruction manual of an EX-series 
Speedlite equipped with an LED light.
