Rezn8 Posted November 29, 2002 Report Share Posted November 29, 2002 Dear Friends, I have just bought a Sony MZ-N1 Minidisk player / recorder. I have no idea how the main display on the unit is switched on. On the package, it is showed with the display turned on. I have read the manual but I cannot find the solution. Thank you, Lazaro W.

Gary Posted November 29, 2002 Report Share Posted November 29, 2002 From what I've read, the "backlight" on the MZ-N1 promo literature is due to the "creative" use of studio lighting, like those pictures of cornflakes that never get soggy in the bowl and ice cream that never melts--in a word, nonexistent! It's a deceptive, but firmly established, tradition. On the positive side, think "increased battery life." :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have read the manual but I cannot find the solution.i also own a N1 but as the others hav said the N1 indeed does NOT hav a backlit display...onli the "illusion" of having 1...the picture that Sony has on the box shows a blue main display is basically due to a bluish refelctive plastic that covers the main LCD...if u look @ the screen from different angles then u would c it as a bit "blue"...otherwise it is just all "creative" photography from Sony...
