USING VARI-PROGRAM WHAT IS VARI - PROGRAM? Programmed exposure control enables the camera's computer to automatically adjust both lens aperture and shutter speed for the correct exposure. The N70 camera's Matrix Metering System determines the correct exposure, applying exposure compensation as deemed necessary by the computer's program. However, other factors can affect the picture, including the use of different shutter speeds and different apertures. The N70's Auto-Multi Program is designed to coordinate the selection of shutter speed and aperture for average situations. It guides the exposure control system into using reasonably high shutter speeds to avoid blur due to camera shake. The N70 incorporates a versatile Vari-Program System that gives you the option to choose from different programs, each designed to accommodate different picture-taking situations. Please review the concept behind and recommended use for each program, using each as described, or in a different way to express your own picture-taking creativity. Once you understand how each program operates, you'll be able to experiment, using each program for an application different from its originally intended use. Please note that the effect achieved by using each VariProgram can be reproduced with the use of other exposure control methods such as Shutter-Priority Auto, Aperture-Priority Auto and Manual. But with Vari-Program control, you allow the camera's computer to take care of all exposure control tasks while you concentrate on composition. This versatility is one of the highlights of the N70 camera's advanced exposure control system. The N70's Vari-Program control offers eight programs: I1l Portrait Program t:r.l Hyperfocal Program El Landscape Program ~ Close-Up Program Sport Program ~ Silhouette Program m Night Scene Program Motion Effect Program For features of each program, see "VARI-PROGRAM SELECTION GUIDE" on pages 64 to 67. 61

VARI-PROGRAM
WHAT
IS
VARI
- PROGRAM?
Programmed exposure control enables the camera's computer
to
automatically adjust both lens aperture and shutter speed for
the correct exposure. The N70 camera's Matrix Metering
System determines the correct exposure, applying exposure
compensation
as
deemed necessary by the computer's
program. However, other factors can affect the picture,
including the use
of
different shutter speeds and different
apertures.
The N70's Auto-Multi Program
is
designed to coordinate the
selection
of
shutter speed and aperture for average situations.
It
guides the exposure control system into using reasonably
high shutter speeds
to
avoid blur due to camera shake. The
N70 incorporates a versatile Vari-Program System that gives
you the option to choose from different programs, each
designed
to
accommodate different picture-taking situations.
Please review the concept behind and recommended use for
each program, using each
as
described, or
in
a different way
to
express your own picture-taking creativity. Once you
understand how each program operates, you'll be able
to
experiment, using each program for an application different
from its originally intended use.
Please note that the effect achieved by using each Vari-
Program can be reproduced with the use
of
other exposure
control methods such
as
Shutter-Priority Auto, Aperture-Priority
Auto and Manual. But with Vari-Program control, you allow the
camera's computer to take care of
all
exposure control tasks
while you concentrate on composition. This versatility
is
one of
