d8: Shooting Info Display At the default setting of v Auto, the color of the lettering in the information display (pg. 10) will automatically change from black to white or white to black in response to ambient lighting conditions. To always use the same color lettering, select Manual and choose w Dark on light (black lettering) or x Light on dark (white lettering). Monitor brightness will automatically be adjusted for maximum contrast with the selected text color. Dark on light This option is available in all shooting modes. Light on dark d9: LCD Illumination At the default setting of Off, the control panel backlight (LCD illuminator) will only light while the power switch is in the D position. If On is selected, the control panel will be illuminated while the exposure meters are active (pg. 35). Select Off for increased battery life. This option is available in all shooting modes. d10: Exposure Delay Mode At the default setting of Off, shutter is released when the shutter-release button is L pressed. In situations where the slightest camera movement can blur pictures, On can be selected to delay shutter release until about 1 s after the shutter-release button is pressed and the mirror is raised. This option is available in all shooting modes. d11: Flash Warning In P, S, A, and M modes, the flash must be raised manually before use. If On (the default setting) is selected for this option and lighting is poor, the flash-ready light (M) will flicker in the viewfinder when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway to warn that the built-in flash is required. No warning will be displayed if Off is selected. This option is available in P, S, A, and M modes only. 183
