General
Hyperfocal Program
Used when photographing
landscapes and other subjects that
encompass great depth. The effect
becomes more pronounced if there
is an interesting foreground in the
scene. This program tends to select
a slow shutter speed and smaller
aperture to ensure that both subject
and background are in focus. To
avoid camera shake, use a tripod.
Recommended AF Nikkor lenses:
Normal or wider angle lenses.
Landscape Program
Used when capturing a distant
scene. Do not use the built-in flash,
as it will be ineffective. This
program tends to select a slower
shutter speed and smaller aperture
to provide sharply focused
landscape pictures. To avoid camera
shake, use a tripod.
Recommended AF Nikkor lenses:
Select the lens according to your
desired effect. For an expansive
view, use a wide angle lens; to
emphasize your subject by
magnifying it, use a telephoto lens.
Close-Up Program
Used when capturing images up
close—a flower, ornamental detail,
a butterfly, etc. Do not use flash. To
avoid camera shake, use a tripod.
Recommended AF Nikkor lenses:
AF Micro-Nikkor lenses.
