d8: LCD Illumination

At the default setting of Off, the control panel backlight (LCD illuminator) will only light while the power switch is rotated toward D. If On is selected, the control panel will be illuminated while the exposure meters are active (pg. 48). Select Off for increased battery life.

d9: Exposure Delay Mode

At the default setting of Off, shutter is released when the shutter- release button is pressed. When shooting with Tripod selected in live view mode (pg. 96) or in situations where the slightest camera movement can blur pictures, On can be selected to delay shutter release until about 1 s after the shutter-release button is pressed and the mirror is raised.
