Nikon F3AF Digital Camera User Manual


 
FOREWORD---------
Congratulations!
You
now own one
of
the most advanced,
easy-to-
use
cameras
on
the market today.
Thanks to a
TTL image displacement detecting system utiliz·
ing
two
SPD
's built into the
AF
Finder
DX
-1, this camera offers
you
through-the-Iens autofocus control with either
of
two
AF-
Nikkor lenses, the
BOmm
f/2.B
and
the 200mm f/3.5 IF-ED.
Thus
,
you
can shoot fast-moving action while the subject
remains
in
sharp focus. And like the regular Nikon
F3
, the
shutter speed is set automatically to match the f/stop
in
use
,
so
you
never
have
to worry about getting the correct exposure.
The
F3AF also gives
you
focus-aid operation with the vast
majority
of
Nikkor and Nikon Series E lenses having a maxi·
mum aperture of
f/3.5 or faster, while regular manual
focusing using the matte portion
of
the screen is possible
with any lens.
Before actually taking pictures with the F3AF, you should
familiarize yourself with its basic operation
as
presented
in
the
first section. For more detailed explanations
and
special
picture-taking situations, refer to the rest
of
the manual. A few
minutes wisely invested now will
payoff
later
in
years of
re
-
warding photographic experiences.
To
insure proper service, make sure the Nikon Warranty Card
is
enclosed
in
the camera box.
