Reflex mirror Quick return
Depth-of-field preview Pressing depth-of-field preview button stops lens aperture down to
value selected by user (A and M modes) or by camera (other modes)
Lens aperture Instant return, electronically controlled
Lens
Compatible lenses Compatible with AF NIKKOR lenses, including type G and D lenses (some
restrictions apply to PC lenses) and DX lenses (using DX 24 × 16 1.5×
image area), AI-P NIKKOR lenses, and non-CPU AI lenses (A and M modes
only). IX NIKKOR lenses, lenses for the F3AF, and non-AI lenses can not be
used.
The electronic rangefinder can be used with lenses that have a
maximum aperture of f/5.6 or faster (the electronic rangefinder supports
the center 7 focus points with lenses that have a maximum aperture of
f/8 or faster and the center 33 focus points with lenses that have a
maximum aperture of f/6.8 or faster)
Shutter
Type Electronically-controlled vertical-travel focal-plane shutter
Speed
1
/4000 – 30 s in steps of
1
/3 or
1
/2 EV, bulb, time (requires optional ML-L3
remote control), X200
Flash sync speed X=
1
/200 s; synchronizes with shutter at
1
/250 s or slower (flash range drops
at speeds between
1
/200 and
1
/250 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), MUP (mirror
up)
Frame advance rate 1–5 fps (CL) or 5.5 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 12 mm circle in center of frame.
Diameter of circle can be changed to 8, 15, or 20 mm, or weighting can
be based on average of entire frame (non-CPU lenses use 12-mm circle
or average of entire frame)
• Spot: Meters 4 mm circle (about 1.5% 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
