Hi All
I have had my Pro 1 for about a week. Occasionally, only occasionally when I press the shutter-button to the halfway point - to focus, a pinkish/reddish glow is visible in the LCD monitor for a brief moment. This also occurs if I am using the viewfinder. Is the camera telling me something that I have missed in the User Guide?
The Pro 1 is taking brilliant pics, and my subjects shouldn't give it any reason to blush!

Hi,
I'm pretty new with my camera - its a G6 - but i noticed something similar when there was too much light - sunlight in particular. Could this be what is happening?

Well done Zero. You are correct. The flashes are indeed overexposure warnings. See page 39 in the Pro 1 User Guide - wouldn't know where in the G6 book. Thanks, DA

Yes, I've noticed it too and thought it was flare, but the pictures came out OK ish.
Skys were slightly overexposed and foregrounds definitely under exposed.
I will now heed the warning. Thanks
