Strongly-Type view and Normal view

What are the differences between strongly-type view and normal view in asp.net MVC?

When I add a View by right click on my Controller into my asp.net MVC project, I have checked a checkbox named Create a strong-typed view. What are the things will change when I checked that checkbox?

Thanks.

With strongly typed views, your view file will have the following directive

@model YourModel

at the top of the file

This signifies to the view that @Html helpers and @Model helpers will interact with a class of that type.

For example 

@Html.DisplayFor(m => m.MyProperty)

Assuming MyProperty is a property on YourModel class.

You can create your views manually, and just add the @model directive at the top of the page yourself.
