LENS

Optional lens converters for wideangle, telephoto and fisheye photography can be used with the COOLPIX995. A Slide Copy Adapter is also available.

Swivel Lock

The Swivel Lock function, prevents the lens section of the

camera from being unintentionally swiveled beyond the horizontal position by the weight of an optional lens converter. Slide the Swivel Lock lever in the direction of the arrow

to activate the Swivel Lock function and lock the lens section of the camera so that it cannot be rotated more than 90° forward (vertical position).

— Slide Copy Adapter —

Select Slide Copy Adptr when the camera is attached to a Slide Copy Adapter to copy a 35mm type color slide film or check the images on negative film.

Positive

Setting for color slide film

Inverse Color

Setting for negative film

Inverse color mode

Bright lighting is required in Inverse Color mode when checking negative film on a Slide Copy Adapter. If the lighting is insufficient, the image on the Monitor appears too bright. If the image is affected by noise (interference), set the Image Sharpening to Off or Low (p. 114).

Inverse Color mode is only intended for checking negative film, and Image quality varies significantly depending on the type or manufacturer of the film being used. To obtain high-quality images, use of a film scanner such as the Nikon COOLSCAN is recommended.

Notes: Lens setting

The built-in Speedlight does not fire when the Lens settings is set to Fisheye 1, Fisheye 2 or Slide Copy Adptr. The Flash Cancel indication is displayed on the Control panel and Monitor.

Refer to the instruction manual for the optional lens converter or Slide Copy Adapter for details.

indications are

 

also displayed on the Monitor.
