Depth of field

The zone of sharpest focus in front of, behind, and around the subject on which the lens is focused; can be previewed in the F5 and some other Nikon cameras.

D-type AF Nikkor lenses

AF Nikkor lenses that send Distance Information to the F5’s microcomputer. Used for 3D Color Matrix Metering or 3D Multi- Sensor Balanced Fill-Flash (with Nikon SB-50DX/SB-28/ SB-28DX/SB-27/SB-26/SB-25 Speedlight).

DX code

Film information code printed on film cartridge. When the F5 is set to its automatic film speed setting mode and DX-coded film is loaded, it senses the film speed (ISO 25 to 5000).

EV

Exposure Value: A number representing the available combina- tions of shutter speeds and apertures that give the same expo- sure effect under conditions of similar scene brightness and ISO.

At ISO 100, the combination of a one-second shutter speed and an aperture of f/1.4 is defined as EV1.

The camera may be used only within the EV range of the expo- sure meter. For example, with the F5, the exposure metering range is from EV0 to EV20 for 3D Color Matrix Metering and Center-Weighted Metering, at ISO 100 with an f/1.4 lens.

Exposure bracketing

Shooting the same subject at a range of different exposures. The F5 camera provides Auto Exposure Bracketing/Flash Exposure Bracketing.

Auto Exposure Bracketing: Auto Exposure Bracketing performs automatic exposure bracketing with varied shutter speed and/or aperture.

Flash Exposure Bracketing: Enables a photographer to automatically bracket exposures at varied flash output levels, in TTL auto flash shooting, without changing the shutter speed and/or aperture.
