Light (B) and Dark (W) info display screensIf you want to impress your friends and make your enemiesenvious, just show them how cool your camera is when it’ssmart enough to adjust its screen to current light conditions. Iwarned you that I’m easily entertained, didn’t I?My Recommendation: I leave my camera set to Autobecause it seems to work very well at automatically selectingthe proper screen for current light conditions. If you prefer thelighter screen, you can select B-Manual for the normal brightblue, light-on-dark screen, and it will stay that way all thetime. Or you could select W-Manual for the darker,less-colorful screen.LCD IlluminationCustom setting d9 (D300S) and d8 (D300)336
