    Screen Display in Dark Shooting ConditionsThe 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. 44), overexposed areas of the image flash 
    on the screen.
    Histogram during Playback
    zThe graph that appears in Detailed 
    Information Display (p. 188) is called the 
    histogram. The histogram shows the 
    distribution of brightness in an image 
    horizontally, and the amount of brightness 
    vertically. 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.
    The indicator on the back of the camera (p. 43) will light or blink depending 
    on the camera’s status.

    When the indicator blinks green, do not turn off the power, open the

    may corrupt the image data or cause the camera or memory card to
