•About LCD panel
•Because of the directional characteristics of the liquid crystal, the LCD is
difficult to read when viewed diagonally from above; however, the display can
be seen clearly from a somewhat lower angle.
•The LCD panel display tends to be darker at high temperatures (approx.
60°C/140°F). When the temperature returns to normal (20°C/68°F), the display
also returns to normal.
•The LCD’s response time tends to slow down at low temperatures (approx.
5°C/41°F and below). When the temperature returns to normal (20°C/68°F),
response time also returns to normal.
•Using the SB-50DX in dim light
•Press the SLAVE/ button to turn the illuminator on (when the SB-50DX
power is on). Press the button again to turn the illuminator off. It turns off
automatically after approx. 16 sec. when the SB-50DX is not in use.
