19. Aperture Setting On certain lenses, aperture varies with focal length or lens-to-film distance. For example, some Zoom-Nikkor lenses' maximum aperture varies with focal length, while some Micro-Nikkor lenses' maximum aperture varies with lensto-film distance. By default, the aperture set using the sub-command dial in aperture-priority or manual exposure modes is preserved as either focal length or lens-to-film distance changes. Using this item, the camera can be set to maintain aperture a constant number of steps from the maximum aperture for the current focal length or lens-to-film distance. Suppose an aperture of f/8 is selected with an AF Zoom-Nikkor 70-210 mm f/4-5.6D lens zoomed out to 70 mm. When the lens is zoomed to this position, f/8 is two steps from the maximum aperture of f/4. At default settings, the aperture will remain a constant f/8 even when the lens is zoomed out to 210 mm. If the camera is set to maintain aperture a constant number of steps from the maximum aperture for the current focal length, however, the aperture at 210 mm will be f/11, two steps from f/5.6, the maximum aperture for this focal length. Option: 0 Aperture does not change with focal length or lens-to-film distance (default) 1 Aperture is maintained at a value a constant number of steps from the maximum aperture for the current focal length or lens-to-film distance 20. Shutter Release Indication via Self-Timer Lamp The self-timer lamp on the front of the camera can be set to light immediately before the shutter is released, even when the self timer is not used. Option: 0 Self-timer lamp does not light when shutter is released (default) 1 Self-timer lamp lights immediately before shutter is released 21. Button By default, both auto exposure and autofocus are locked when the button is pressed and remain locked when it is held down. Using this item, you can change settings so that auto exposure remains locked when the button is released, or so that only one of auto exposure or autofocus is locked while the button is held down. Option: 0 Both auto exposure and autofocus are locked while the button is pressed (default) 1 Only auto exposure is locked while the button is pressed 2 Only autofocus is locked while the button is pressed 3 Auto exposure is locked when the button is pressed, and remains locked until the button is pressed a second time 22. Aperture Selection By default, aperture can only be set using the sub-command dial in aperturepriority auto and manual exposure modes. Using this item, you can change settings so that aperture can only be adjusted using the lens aperture ring. Option: 0 Aperture can only be adjusted using sub-command dial (default) 1 Aperture can only be adjusted with lens aperture ring Custom Settings: Custom Settings Options 71
