BASIC SHOOTING

The Nikon N5005 offers both auto and manual focusing. It also gives you three auto exposure modes - programmed auto, aperture-priority auto, shutter-prior- ity auto - plus manual exposure control. The following instructions are for auto- focus shooting in programmed auto exposure mode with an AF Nikkor lens. Programmed auto is the easiest-to-use exposure mode.

For details about other focusing methods and exposure modes, see pages 20 to 27 and 28 to 36, respectively.

Confirm lens is set to smallest aperture (largest f-number); if lens is incorrectly set, the sh utter release locks and + and - LEDs blink alternately inside the view- finder. The self-timer indicator LED will also blink.

Set shutter speed dial to A, and aperture dial to S.
