If this happens, wipe with a soft, dry cloth.≥ Do not touch the LCD monitor with your finger nails, or rub or press with strong force.≥ The LCD monitor will be slightly darker than normal immediately after the power is turned onwhen the camera is very cold. It will return to its regular brightness when the internaltemperature increases.≥ The LCD monitor and viewfinder are managed with high precision so that at least 99.99% ofthe dots are effective pixels and 0.01% or less are invalid pixels and always lit.
