[QUOTE="Archr0y, post: 626893, member: 20079"] Hi All, So I decided to upgrade to a D500 from my old D7100, and I have a small annoyance. When I half-press the shutter (ie focusing), the entire viewfinder faintly glows red, along with the illuminated focus point. This is quite distracting.

I did do some googling, and there are a handful of posts where people have observed the same issues (D700,D750,D800), and even the D500. So my question is, does anyone else encounter this? Is it a fault affecting a tiny percentage of D500s? Is it not a fault at all, just a design feature of the viewfinder/focus illumination?
