format; Graphics, which uses a mixture of
text, graphics, and icons; and Wallpaper,
which uses a photograph you select as a
background, and doesn’t include shutter
speed and aperture information. All illustra-
tions in this book use the Classic format for
the shooting information display, which pro-
vides the maximum amount of information
with the best readability. If you’d prefer to
use one of the other shooting information
displays, I show you how to do that in
Chapter 3.
I have divided the screen into two figures.
Figure 1.16 shows the information clustered
around the center status area. Figure 1.17
shows the remaining information indicators
and readouts on the shooting information
display.
