K7 in manual mode ... where is the (metering) indicator ...?

[jacques c pelletier]

<p>Hi folks,</p>

<p>I am not sure how this happened but now, since I started using the K7 in full manual mode, the only way I can see the metering indicator "bar" (from -5 to +5) is from the rear LCD screen. This is rather incommodating when you look in the viewfinder and that this "meter bar" is not there, instead, I have the "level" indicator.<br>

What am I doing wrong?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>Do you have the "level" displayed in the viewfinder?</p>

<p>If so, it uses the same display as exposure information. Turn it off, and your metering display will come back.</p>

Thanks!! :)<br>

Yep, that worked! I prefer having it that way, that's for sure.<br>

Cheers.</p>

<p>I was disappointed that it is either-or. Maybe should require a button press or have otherwise quick access.</p>
