LCD Panel The liquid crystal panel of the monitor screen uses high-precision technology that provides a pixel yield in excess of 99.99%. This means that some very small number of pixels may not light or may remain lit at all times. This is due to the characteristics of the liquid crystal panel, and does not indicate malfunction. Read this first! Take a few test shots Before shooting your final image, shoot a test shot to ensure that the camera is recording correctly.
