Lens
Compatible lenses • DX AF NIKKOR: All functions supported
• Type G or D AF NIKKOR: All functions supported (PC Micro-NIKKOR does
not support some functions).
IX NIKKOR lenses not supported.
• Other AF NIKKOR: All functions supported except 3D color matrix
metering II.
Lenses for F3AF not supported.
• AI-P NIKKOR: All functions supported except 3D color matrix metering II
• Non-CPU: Can be used in modes A and M; color matrix metering and
aperture value display supported if user provides lens data (AI lenses
only)
Electronic rangefinder can be used if maximum aperture is f/5.6 or faster.
Shutter
Type Electronically-controlled vertical-travel focal-plane shutter
Speed
1
/8000 – 30 s in steps of
1
/3 or
1
/2 EV, bulb, time (requires optional ML-L3
remote control), X250
Flash sync speed X=
1
/250 s; synchronizes with shutter at
1
/320 s or slower (flash range drops
at speeds between
1
/250 and
1
/320 s)
Release
Release mode S (single frame), CL (continuous low speed), CH (continuous high speed),
J (quiet shutter-release), E (self-timer), 4 (remote control), M
UP (mirror
up)
Frame advance rate
(CIPA guidelines)
1–5 fps (C
L) or 6 fps (CH)
Self-timer 2 s, 5 s, 10 s, 20 s; 1–9 exposures at intervals of 0.5, 1, 2, or 3 s
Remote release modes Delayed remote, quick-response remote, remote mirror-up
Exposure
Metering TTL exposure metering using 2,016-pixel RGB sensor
Metering method • Matrix: 3D color matrix metering II (type G and D lenses); color matrix
metering II (other CPU lenses); color matrix metering available with
non-CPU lenses if user provides lens data
• Center-weighted: Weight of 75% given to 8 mm circle in center of frame.
Diameter of circle can be changed to 6, 10, or 13 mm, or weighting can
be based on average of entire frame (fixed at 8 mm when non-CPU
lens is used)
• Spot: Meters 3.5 mm circle (about 2.5% of frame) centered on selected
focus point (on center focus point when non-CPU lens is used)
Range (ISO 100, f/1.4
lens, 20 °C/68 °F)
• Matrix or center-weighted metering: 0–20 EV
• Spot metering: 2–20 EV
