New Scene Recognition System Nikon's new and exclusive Scene Recognition System helps optimize autofocus, auto exposure and auto white balance performance by advancing the use of Nikon's acclaimed 1,005-segment RGB sensor to recognize the conditions of the subject and framed scene prior to capturing the shot. Improves autofocus on moving subjects Detects highlight areas Detects scene characteristics and recognizes patterns Contribution to AF performance Subject tracking data computed from the 1,005-segment RGB sensor greatly improves the speed and precision of automatic focus point selection, particularly for 3D-tracking and Automatic-area AF. Having recognized the color of a subject within a user-selected focus point, the system automatically traces and tracks subject movement, and even effectively predicts focus if the subject momentarily moves outside the focus points. Subject identification information is also used to distinguish your subject from the background and sky when shooting portraits. Contribution to AE performance The finely segmented metering data from the 1,005-segment RGB sensor enables highly detailed detection of highlight areas. The results of this highlight analysis are used to compute the range of brightness to be reproduced, which provides more accurate exposure control. Contribution to Auto White Balance performance A c c u r a t e l i g h t s o u r c e i d e n t i fi c a t i o n is obtained as information captured prior to exposure by extracting scene characteristics while recognizing patterns. It is then applied to the auto white balance algorithms for optimal selection of white balance to match the scene.
