[QUOTE="uffelbob, post: 830798, member: 57874"] I am a hobbyist and still finding my way around my D850. I want to use Live View for certain things but there seem to be differences between what my screen is showing and the manual and I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction to setting it up correctly. Firstly, the focus point/s are simply not showing. All I am getting is a red/green point right up in the left hand corner. I am on AF-F and Normal AF Focus mode. Secondly, there is no exposure indicator. By that I mean I can change aperture and shutter speed but no indicator as to when the exposure is correct. I understand there is supposed to be a preview button which the manual says is the "OK" button but this does nothing to the live view screen. As a result I am quite literally shooting in the dark in live view with no way of checking either the focus or exposure levels. Obviously I have something wrong in the settings but so far have not been able to find out what. Any suggestions? Thanks [/QUOTE]
