USB 1.1 interface that lets you download to your
computer.
Recording media compatibility
The D100 is compatible with CompactFlash
™
Card and
other cards in the EC-CF series, as well as IBM
Corporation’s MicroDrive
™
1GB and 512MB Cards.
Easy data transmission
When you connect the D100 to a computer via the
USB 1.1 interface, the camera will show up on
your screen as a hard disk, for fast, easy image
transfer. In addition, Nikon View 5 dedicated driver
software launches automatically, allowing you to
selectively view, transfer, print, erase and make
minor adjustments to captured images, including
NEF (RAW) image files.
The D100 also accepts Nikon’s innovative VR Nikkor
lenses such as the AF VR Zoom-Nikkor 80-400mm f/4-
5.6D. These lenses minimise image blur caused by
camera shake, and offer the equivalent of shooting at a
shutter speed three stops (eight times) faster than the
actual setting. The VR (Vibration Reduction) system is
ideal for handheld shooting at dusk, at night, and also
in poorly lit interiors. A VR lens also automatically
detects when you pan — no special mode is required.
The built-in LCD monitor lets you evaluate your
pictures on the spot. The D100 LCD is a 1.8-in.,
120,000-dot, low-temperature polysilicon TFT
LCD monitor that displays captured images,
menus and histogram
indications. The moni-
tor is LED backlit, mak-
ing it easier to see even
in bright light, and dis-
plays 100% of the play-
back image.
Full information display
Knowing the details of a captured image is extremely
helpful for postproduction tweaking, reshooting and
as reference for future assignments. With the D100,
you can choose to view images in one-frame or
thumbnail (9 or 4) playback formats. Then, when you
select a desired image, the LCD monitor displays a
range of information — including camera setting,
histogram indication and highlight point — pertaining
to that image.
One-Touch Zoom
To confirm focusing of a shot you’ve taken, just press
the One-Touch Zoom button and the D100 provides
up to approximately 20x magnification (of an L size
image).
Large, bright, easy-to-see
monitor display
Scrolling menu display
This menu display gives you immediate access to a
range of features. Using the multi selector, you can
choose the camera settings for the following menus:
PLAYBACK MENU, SHOOTING MENU, CSM (custom)
MENU, and SET UP.
The D100 provides 26 Custom Settings for your
most-frequently used functions, including On-
Demand Grid Line display. There are two combi-
nations of selected settings that can be “memo-
rised” by the camera and later recalled. For fast
and easy operation, you can select camera set-
up via the Custom Settings function on the TFT
LCD monitor.
The D100 is more than just compact, it’s also
quick. Shutter release time lag, start-up time,
autofocus and image processing are all very
fast. Moreover, the D100 sports a plug-and-play
