The Viewfinder Display 1 Introduction-Getting to Know the Camera 2 2 3 45 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 Advanced Focusing Screen Display When the background is bright, the active focus area ( 66) is highlighted in black. When the background is dark, the active focus area is highlighted briefly in red as needed to establish contrast with the background ("Vari-Brite" focus areas), making it easier to identify the selected focus area. The viewfinder is also equipped with ondemand grid lines. When On is selected for Custom Setting 8 (Grid display; 144), a reference grid is superimposed over the display in the viewfinder. This grid is a useful aid when composing landscape shots or when tilting or shifting a PC Nikkor lens. Owing to the characteristics of this type of viewfinder display, you may notice fine lines radiating outwards from the selected focus area, or that the display in the viewfinder turns red when the selected focus area is highlighted. These phenomena are normal and do not indicate a malfunction. 8
