The type K focusing screen that comes with the N6000 has

three focusing aids:

A. Split-image focusing

For precise, pinpoint focusing of subjects with distinct

edges/contours, turn the focusing ring until the split-image
becomes whole.

B. Microprism focusing

For rapid focusing and for subjects with indistinct outlines,

turn focusing ring until the shimmering image becomes

sharp.

C. Matte-field focusing

For close-up photography at high magnification, or when
using a telephoto lens with a maximum aperture of approx.

f/11 or smaller, the split-image may darken. Turn focusing

ring until image on the matte field appears sharp.
