Setting Shooting SET-UP Menus-continued Shooting Mode Zoom Options You can use the Zoom Options to determine various functions that relate to the initial set up of the lens and the aperture variations relative to the Zoom position. Digital Tele Sets the Digital zoom setting. Startup Position Sets the initial Zoom position. Fixes the camera aperture during Fixed Aperture Zoom operation to ensure consistent exposure with external flash units. - Digital Tele - The Digital zoom function digitally enlarges the center of the image so that it fill the entire frame. The Digital Zoom only functions during shooting if the Monitor is turned on. Hod down the (optical) Zoom button for more than 2 sec. after the Zoom has reached its highest On telephoto setting. The Digital zoom function (p. 63) then starts up automatically and the image in the Monitor is zoomed by up to 4.0x. Off Digital zoom function does not operate. - Start-up Position - Last Position Wide Tele When you turn the camera on, the lens moves to its Zoom position at the time the camera was last turned off. When you turn the camera on, the lens zooms in to the wide-angle setting. When you turn the camera on, the lens zooms up to the telephoto setting. • The start-up position for Zoom applies when shooting in both and modes. • The start-up time is shortest for the telephoto Zoom setting. - Fixed Aperture - Off Aperture varies with zooming. In Aperture-Priority Auto or Manual Exposure mode, the camera memorizes aperture when zooming On begins and the aperture value remains fixed throughout zooming. Note that with the fixed aperture setting, zooming may cause the exposure to exceed the exposure control range of this camera. Note: Exposure in Fixed Aperture setting Since the exposure will vary as the field of view changes, the exposure may exceed the control range of the camera when you use the zoom with the Fixed Aperture setting. To avoid this, use a Fixed Aperture setting of approx. f/5 to f/7. 132 Speedlight Options This menu controls settings for built-in Speedlight and for external Speedlights. Variable Power Int Flash Off Shot Confirm Lamp Adjusts flash output level. Suppresses firing of the built-in Speedlight. Turns the shot confirmation lamp on and off. - Variable Power - Flash output can be adjusted through 12 levels-from -2EV to +2EV in 1/3-EV steps. - Int Flash Off - This setting allows you to take photographs with multiple external Speedlights. When the Int Flash Off setting is not selected, you can take pictures using multiple flash units, including both the built-in Speedlight and an optional external Speedlight. When this setting is selected, the built-in Speedlight flash is suppressed and only the optional external Speedlight(s) fire. In this situation, the flash modes for the optional Speedlights can be selected using the Flash mode button on the COOLPIX995 when the built-in Speedlight is raised. • When Int Flash Off is set to On, ‹ (optional Speedlight indication), the Flash mode indication for the optional Speedlight, and fi (built-in Speedlight Flash suppressed) appear on the Control panel. The Flash mode indication for the optional Speedlight and fi (built-in Speedlight Flash suppressed) also appear on the Monitor. 133 Menus
