D700 - A couple of questions
Posted: Tue Oct 28, 2008 4:49 pmmy d700 and SB800 appear to have had a bit of a hissy fit. I can figure out how but i (or the camera) appear to have turned off the red autofocus assist beam from the flash to help in low light. I looked through the menus and it appears everything is in its right place...
Also something that has been bugging me and i hope you can change:
When i shoot i shoot in Ap with easy exposure compensation on, meaning the rear wheel will change the Exposure Compensation. I have noticed that unlike the d200 where the exposure comp would remain visable in the viewfinder the entire time, with the d700 the meter flashes on and off, not only when the camera is not in use but also when you change your composition that would require another exposure. Basicly im wondering if there is a way to make the meter stay at how much i am under/over exposing by as it becomes hard to tell what you EC is set to.
