Technical Notes—Specifi cations
Autofocus
Detection range –1 – +19 EV (ISO 100 at 20 °C/68 °F)
AF-area mode Single-area AF, dynamic-area AF, group dynamic-AF, dynamic-
area AF with closest subject priority
Focus lock Focus can be locked by pressing shutter-release button halfway
(single-servo AF) or by pressing AE-L/AF-L button
TTL phase detection by Nikon Multi-CAM1000 autofocus sen-
sor module
Exposure
Metering Three-mode through-the-lens (TTL) exposure metering
Matrix 3D color matrix metering II (type G and D lenses); color matrix
metering II (other CPU lenses); color matrix metering available
with non-CPU lenses if user provides lens data; metering per-
formed by 1,005-segment RGB sensor
Center-weighted Weight of 75% given to 6, 8, 10, or 13-mm circle in center of
frame
Spot Meters 3-mm circle (about 2.0% of frame) centered on active
focus area (on center focus area when non-CPU lens is used)
Range
(ISO 100 equivalent, f/1.4
lens, 20 °C/68 °F)
0 – 20 EV (3D color matrix or center-weighted metering)
2 – 20 EV (spot metering)
Exposure meter coupling
Combined CPU and AI
Exposure control
Operating mode Programmed auto with fl exible program; shutter-priority auto;
aperture priority auto; manual
Exposure compensation –5 – +5 EV in increments of /, /, or 1 EV
Bracketing Exposure and / or fl ash bracketing (2–9 exposures in increments
of /, /, /, or 1 EV)
Exposure lock Luminosity locked at detected value with AE-L/AF-L button
Shutter
Speed 30 – / s in steps of /, /, or 1 EV, bulb
Electronically-controlled vertical-travel focal-plane shutter
ISO Sensitivity (Recom-
mended Exposure Index)
100– 1600 in steps of /, /, or 1 EV with additional settings up to
1 EV over 1600; auto gain to 1600
White balance
Bracketing 2–9 exposures in increments of 1, 2, or 3
Auto (TTL white-balance with 1,005 pixels RGB sensor), six
manual modes with fi ne-tuning, color temperature setting, and
preset white balance
