Viewfinder Information |
Three focusing points (superimposed in red when selected by Eye Control or dial operation), panorama frame (LED), and depth-of-field preview mark all within the image area. Outside the image area, the shutter speed, aperture setting, calibration, depth-of-field AE, FE lock are displayed by a 7-segment yellow LCD. The following indicators use a yellow LCD mask: AE lock, exposure dot scale, exposure compensation, exposure compensation amount, flash, manual exposure level, autobracketing amount, red-eye reduction lamp-ON indicator, flash exposure compensation, flash ready, in-focus indicator (blinks when focus is impossible), incorrect exposure warning during FE lock, Eye Control icon (lights during Eye Control and blinks when Eye Control is impossible), and high-speed sync. Orange LEDs outside the image area illuminate to indicate the panorama image area. They also light during depth-of-field preview with the Eye-Controlled depth-of-field mark or AE lock button. |
Metering & Exposure Control |
Composite SPC for TTL full-aperture metering (6-zone evaluative, 9.5% partial metering at center linked to focusing point, centerweighted averaging) with shutter speed-priority AE, aperture-priority AE, depth-of-field AE, shiftable Intelligent program AE, four program AE modes, and metered manual. Manual exposure compensation range of ±2 EV (in 1/2-stop increments). AE lock enabled with a button. Autobracketing range of ±2 EV (in 1/2-stop increments) for three consecutive frames. Metering range at ISO 100 and f/1.4: EV 1 – 20. Film speed range: ISO 6 to 6400 (ISO 25 – 5000 can be set automatically with DX code in 1/3-stop increments). Maximum 9 multiple exposures (cancellable or resettable anytime). 11 Custom Functions. |
Built-in Flash | Located on pentaprism hump. Retractable head. TTL autoflash control (fires automatically in backlight and low-light conditions in the Full Auto and certain Programmed Image Control modes) with off-the-film metering. |
Quick Control Dial | Dial on camera back sets exposure compensation amount in AE modes, the aperture in the manual mode, and the flash exposure compensation amount for the built-in flash. |
Power Source | One 6 V 2CR5 lithium battery |
