About the <E> icon and camera’s internal temperature increase

When you shoot continuously with the Live View function for a long
period or in high temperatures, the camera’s internal temperature may
increase and the warning icon will appear on the screen. Note that
if you shoot with the Live View function for a long period in high
temperatures, the warning icon will appear earlier. Turn off the
camera when not shooting images.

If you shoot with the Live View function while the warning icon is
displayed, the image quality of still photos may be degraded. You should
stop Live View shooting and allow the camera to rest until the camera’s
internal temperature decreases.

If Live View shooting continues while the warning icon is displayed,
the camera’s internal temperature will further increase and Live View
shooting may stop automatically. Live View shooting will be disabled until
the camera’s internal temperature decreases. Turn off the camera and
allow the camera to rest for a while.

You can also focus by pressing the

button.

When flash is used, there will be two shutter sounds, but only one shot
will be taken.

Even while the Live View image is displayed, you can playback images
by pressing .

If the camera is not operated for a prolonged period, the power will turn
off automatically as set with [5 Auto power off] (p.46). If [5 Auto
power off
] is set to [Off], the Live View shooting will stop automatically
after 30 min. (camera power remains on).

With the AV cable (provided) or HDMI cable (sold separately), you can
display the Live View image on a TV (p.184-185).
