[QUOTE="jayw, post: 673960, member: 869"] I had several suggestions from Nikon. One was to reset the Custom menu which didn't change anything. The next was to set menu C2 from Normal to Short (supposedly sets the display time to about 4 seconds). That didn't work either. Waiting to hear back from Nikon for next suggestion. In the meantime, I'd like to ask for help from the members if they would do an test for me. Unfortunately, this needs to be done with a D5300 body to make the test valid. I'm wondering if the problem is a lens/body compatibility issue. I don't think it is, but need to confirm. Like I said, I have a D5300 body with a Sigma 17-70mm Contemporary lens which is my one and only lens. What I'd like to confirm is that if you use a Nikon lens (any lens) using BBF and/or no BBF (camera default setting), how long does it take for the image to turn off based on your choice for menu C2? Do the same but change to a non-Nikon lens (if you have a Sigma lens, all the better) and let me know if you see any changes in the time the image goes off. I don't want to mention this to Nikon and have them come back and say the body/lens are not compatible and close my case. Thanks for your help. So greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
