AF sensors for 11-area wide autofocus system
11-Area High-Speed Autofocus System
Featuring eleven AF sensors — including nine cross-type sensors which cover the greater part of the viewing area — the Multi- CAM2000 AF sensor module responds quickly and delivers razor-sharp focus even in the most challenging situations. The cross-type sensors function with all AF NIKKOR lenses with a maximum aperture of f/5.6 or faster, and enable enhanced small or low-contrast subject detection. Furthermore, large sensors help make possible smooth, swift AF opera- tion with markedly wider defocus detection
3D Color Matrix Metering
The F6’s 3D Color Matrix Metering offers enhanced precision thanks largely to an improved scene-detecting algorithm. It ana- lyzes numerous aspects of the scene condi- tions — including brightness, contrast, selected focus area, subject-to-camera dis- tance and color — and compares them to the reference information of more than 30,000 actual scenes in the database, ensuring super-precise exposure control and faithfully preserving the ambience of the scene.

Flexible Center-Weighted and Spot Metering
VISUAL BRILLIANCE — The 0.74x viewfinder portrays radiant colors in every hue
imaginable, and the F6’s superior electronics do the rest.
Dynamic AF Operation
Even when shooting a moving subject, the F6’s Dynamic AF ensures highly precise focusing, by shifting rapidly to the focus area to which the subject has moved.
Nikon’s own Flexible Center-Weighted Metering provides you with the option of selecting the size of the sensing area from Custom Settings. And Spot Metering changes to correspond with the focus area you’ve selected.
In Dynamic AF mode, one of three available modes, you can assign top priority to the most suitable focus area for your composi- tion. Engage Closest-Subject-Priority Dynamic AF mode to have the F6 select the appropriate area for you. And for optimum results when attempting to capture a mov-

top, bottom, left, right), and the camera automatically focuses on the center focus area of the selected areas.

i-TTL Balanced Fill-Flash
The F6 supports the i-TTL Flash Control system, providing outstanding results and myriad creative possibilities. Nikon’s Creative Lighting System, the most advanced flash control system anywhere, uses a new algorithm and a brighter, shorter Monitor Pre-flash to lift the precision of i-TTL Balanced Fill-Flash even beyond that of Nikon’s acclaimed 3D Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill-Flash systems. Furthermore, the Creative Lighting System allows you
to employ advanced flash techniques including Advanced Wireless Lighting and FV (Flash Value) Lock.
