D Shooting in Live View
To prevent light entering via the viewfinder from interfering with
photographs and exposure, the rubber eyecup can be removed and
the viewfinder covered with the supplied eyepiece cap before
shooting (0 90).
Although they will not appear in the final picture, jagged edges, color
fringing, moiré, and bright spots may appear in the monitor, while
bright regions or bands may appear in some areas with flashing signs
and other intermittent light sources or if the subject is briefly
illuminated by a strobe or other bright, momentary light source. In
addition, distortion may occur with moving subjects, particularly if the
camera is panned horizontally or an object moves horizontally at high
speed through the frame. Flicker and banding visible in the monitor
under fluorescent, mercury vapor, or sodium lamps can be reduced
using Flicker reduction option in the movie shooting menu (0 259),
although they may still be visible in the final photograph at some
shutter speeds. When shooting in live view, avoid pointing the camera
at the sun or other strong light sources. Failure to observe this
precaution could result in damage to the camera’s internal circuitry.
Using live view for extended periods may
cause the grip and areas of the camera
around the monitor to become hot. This
does not indicate a malfunction.
This area becomes
particularly hot.
