Zebra patterns
When you press the button while in
mode, a zebra pattern or marker is
displayed on the viewfinder and LCD monitor, so
you can check brightness of the subject.
Portions where over exposure might cause white
out are displayed in a striped pattern.
• Extremely bright area
• Reflecting area
When you adjust iris and shutter speed in manual
mode so that the zebra pattern disappears, you get
images with less white out.
Every time you press the button, the
display switches as follows.

Also when you set the [ZEBRA DETECT2] item
to [OFF], even though you press the
button, [ZEBRA2] will not be displayed.

(approximately 2 seconds) as [%].
