❚❚The Optional FT1 Mount Adapter
Read this section for information on using the optional FT1
mount adapter. Before proceeding, be sure that you have read
and understood this manual and the documentation for the FT1
and lenses.
Autofocus
Autofocus is available only with AF-S lenses; other lenses sup-
port manual focus only. Set the camera focus mode to AF-S (the
camera will not focus in other autofocus modes). The only AF-
area mode available is Single-point and the camera focuses on
the subject in the center focus area only. Face priority is not sup-
ported. In some cases, a beep may sound, the in-focus indicator
may be displayed, and pictures can be taken when the camera is
not in focus; if this occurs, focus manually.
Manual Focus
Follow the steps below to focus manually when using the FT1
with a NIKKOR F mount lens.
1Select manual focus mode.
Select Manual focus for Focus mode in the shooting menu.
2Focus.
Rotate the lens focus ring until the
subject is in focus.
If the lens supports autofocus with manual override, after
focusing using autofocus you can keep the shutter-release
button pressed halfway and rotate the lens focus ring to fine-
tune focus manually. To refocus using autofocus, press the
shutter-release button halfway again.
