Getting to Know Nikon Capture 4 Camera Control
The Exposure 1 Tab
The fol low ing settings can be adjusted from
the Exposure 1 tab:
Exposure Mode: This menu can be used to
set the exposure mode for D2- and D1-series
and D200 cameras. If a D100 is connected,
or if Enable controls on the camera body
is checked when a D70s, D70, or D50 is con-
nected, it will show the current exposure
mode but the mode itself must be selected
using the camera function dial. See the cam-
era manual for details.
Shutter Speed: Shutter speed can only be
adjusted in Man u al and Speed Priority
modes, when it can be set to values between
the max i mum and min i mum val ues support-
ed by the camera. Use high shut ter speeds to
freeze mo tion, low shut ter speeds to suggest
mo tion by blur ring moving objects.
Aperture: Aperture can only be adjusted in Manual and Aperture Pri or i ty modes, when
it can be set to values between maximum and min i mum ap er ture (small apertures have high
f-num bers, wide ap er tures low f-numbers; the ac tu al ap er tures available depend on the lens
used). Ap er ture can not be controlled from Nikon Cap ture when Custom Setting 22 has been
set to allow aperture to be ad just ed manually using the lens aperture ring (D1-series only).
Exposure Comp.: Exposure compensation is useful when shooting subjects containing sharp
lighting con trasts, or on other occasions when you want to modify the exposure value deter-
mined by the cam era. Exposure compensation is available in all exposure modes.
Flash Comp. (D200/D100/D70s/D70/D50 only): This option is used to adjust the level of the
camera’s built-in Speedlight.
Flexible Program: Flexible program can only be used in Program Mode, when it allows you
to choose from pre de ter mined combinations of shutter speed and aperture appropriate to
current lighting conditions.
