When
using
super-telephoto
lenses
or
doing
photomicro-
graphy,
it
becomes
necessary
to
reduce
camera
vibration
to
the
absolute
minimum.
To
lock
the
reflex viewing
mirror
in
the
"up"
position,
push
in
the
depth-of-field
preview
button
and
rotate
the
lever
counterclockwise
until it stops.
Note:
Two
Nikkor lenses require that the mirror
be
locked
up
bel
ore
mounting
- the Fisheye·Nikkor 6mm 1/5.6
and
OP Fisheye-Nikkor lOmm
1/5.6.
Caution
: With the mirror
locked
up, you
should
not
operate the camera
on automatic. Even though
th
e LCD continues
to
show you the shutter
speed
automatically
selected
by
the camera, this
speed
will
not
produce
the correct exposure.
Self-timer
The F3's blinking self-timer
provides
a

delay
in
shutter
release.
To
operate
the
self-timer:
3. Watch the blinking
red
LED
®
on
the front of the camera.
The
LED
blinks faster
during
the final two seconds before the
shutter
opens
to warn
you
to
get ready.
4. Don't forget to return the
self-timer to its original posi-
tion after using it.
If
you
want to
cancel
the self-
timer after pushing the shutter
release button, return the self-
timer lever to its original posi-
tion. The picture then will not
betaken.
