About
Nikon
Advanced
Focusing
Screen
Display
The new Nikon Advanced Focusing Screen Display
of
the N80/N80aD employs the
convenient Vari-Brite Focus Area display system; it enables clear display of the focus
brackets at the selected focus area in the viewfinder for easy identification. When the finder
image
is
bright, the focus brackets are displayed
in
black and when the finder image
is
dark, the focus brackets are momentarily illuminated
in
red.
The selected focus area can be
identified easily
in
both bright and dark conditions with this function (page
72).
Also, the new Nikon Advanced Focusing Screen Display allows the superimposition of On-
Demand Grid Line
s.
The grid lines can be displayed by using Custom Setting Menu
#4
(page
71).
These grids assist you in composing the frame,
in
taking landscape pictures or
in
shifting/tilting PC-Nikkor lenses .

About
LCD
The LCD panel and viewfinder displays tend to turn darker at high temperatures and slower
response time at low temperatures. On the other hand, the LCD
in
the Nikon Advanced
Focusing Screen Display tends
to
turn lighter at high temperatures and darker with slower
response time at low temperatures.
In
either case, when the temperature returns to normal,
the displays also return
to
normal.
