Bright Monitoring

Allows you to adjust the composition when shooting in dark environments. By extending the exposure time, you can check the composition on the viewfinder/monitor even in dark locations such as under the night sky.

  1. MENU (Custom Settings) → [Custom Key(Shoot.)] → assign the [Bright Monitoring] function to the desired key.
  2. Press the key to which you assigned the [Bright Monitoring] function, then shoot an image.
    • The brightness due to [Bright Monitoring] will continue after shooting.
    • To return the monitor brightness to normal, press the key to which you assigned the [Bright Monitoring] function once again.
