About the HistogramThe histogram is a graph that allows you to judge the brightness of 
the recorded image. The greater the bias toward the left in the 
graph, the darker the image. The greater the bias toward to the right, 
the brighter the image.
If the image is dark, adjust the exposure compensation to a positive 
number. Similarly, adjust the exposure compensation to a negative 
number if the image is bright. (p. 92)
Overexposure WarningIn the following conditions, overexposed portions of the image blink.
zWhen an image just shot is being reviewed on the LCD monitor 
(Information view) or in the viewfinder.
z In the detailed display mode of the Playback mode.
Using the Zoom (Focal Length)
The zoom can be adjusted from 28 to 200 mm (equivalent to 35mm 
film format).
Telephoto/Wide AngleYou can zoom in (telephoto) and zoom out 
(wide angle) by turning the zoom ring. The 
zoom bar appears during the zoom 
operation.
zThe zoom speed varies according to how 
fast you turn the zoom ring.

The factor displays after the zoom operation.
zThe digital zoom cannot be used with certain Shooting modes 
(p. 202).
