The Viewfi nder Display

The focus-area and grid-line displays in the viewfi nder (advanced focusing screen dis-
play) tend to brighten at high temperatures and to darken and exhibit slower response
times at low temperatures. The other displays in the viewfi nder tend darken at high
temperatures and exhibit slower response times at low temperatures. All displays will
return to normal at room temperature.

No Battery

When the battery is totally exhausted or no battery is inserted, the display in the view-
fi nder will dim. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction. The viewfi nder
display will return to normal when a fully-charged battery is inserted.
