This is a characteristiccommon to all TFT LCD displays, and does not indicate a malfunction. Images recorded using theproduct will not be affected.• White or colored streaks may be visible when bright subjects are framed in the monitor. Thisphenomenon, known as "smear," occurs when extremely bright light strikes the Image sensor; it ischaracteristic of image sensors and does not indicate a malfunction. Smear may also take the formof partial discoloration in the monitor during shooting. It does not appear in images recorded withthe camera except in the cases of movies and of images recorded with Multi-shot 16 selected forContinuous. When shooting in these modes, we recommend that you avoid bright subjects suchas the sun, reflected sunlight, and electric lights.• Images in the monitor may be difficult to see under bright lighting.• The monitor is lit by an LED backlight.
