Focus Area, When using Nikon dedicated Speedlight | Nikon N90

FOCUS

FOCUS AREA

The N90's autofocus system offers a choice of two focus areas: Wide and Spot.

While pressing focus area button, rotate command dial until the desired symbol--E:2J for Wide Area or 0 for Spot Area- appears in the LCD panel.

When using Nikon dedicated Speedlight

When a Nikon dedicated Speedlight connected to the camera is turned on, Wide Area is automatically switched over to Spot Area focus. In this case, 0 blinks in the LCD panel and 0 appears inside the viewfinder.
