Using a Zoom Lens
Use the zoom ring to zoom in on the subject so that it fills a larger area
of the frame, or zoom out to increase the area visible in the final photo-
graph. During movie recording with the 1 NIKKOR VR 10–30mm f/3.5–
5.6 PD-ZOOM, the zoom rate is unaffected by the speed with which the
ring is rotated.

If you are using a 1 NIKKOR VR 10–100mm
f/4.5–5.6 PD-ZOOM lens (available sepa-
rately), slide the power drive zoom switch to
T to zoom in and to W to zoom out. The speed
with which the camera zooms in and out var-
ies with how far you slide the switch. The
zoom position is shown by the zoom guide in
the display.

Face Priority
The camera detects and focuses on portrait
subjects (face priority). A double yellow bor-
der will be displayed if a portrait subject is
detected facing the camera (if multiple faces,
up to a maximum of five, are detected, the
camera will select the closest subject). Press
the shutter-release button halfway to focus
on the subject in the double yellow border. The border will clear from
the display if the camera can no longer detect the subject (because, for
example, the subject has looked away).
