Screen Powering Down After About 20 Seconds

[MiG29]

I just purchased a Z5 and am having issues with the screen. Once I switch it on, the view stays up for about 20 seconds, then goes blank. I press the "Image" button and it comes back, but about 20 seconds latter, it goes dark again. Any thought?

I'm sorry, I should've mentioned that I do have a manual and can't find anything concerning my problem in it.

OK, I went to https://downloadcenter.nikonimglib.com/en/products/552/Z_5.html and found where it's supposed to power down after a minute. Guess I'll go in and change that. Thanks!

Please let me know if you solve it.

OK, I simply went into the menu and set it for 5 minutes. It's done pretty much the same as other cameras.

Just keep in mind that if you set it for longer periods before shutdown, you will find that your batteries won't last nearly as long in a shooting session. Like most things in photography, there is no free lunch.

Right, but I really don't intend on even turning it on 'til I'm ready to shoot. Matter of fact is that I intend selling this camera once the ZR arrives.
