Nikon D2Xs manual 127, During Shooting, Maximum shots

During Shooting

During interval timer photography, the icon in the top control panel will blink. Imme- diately before the next shooting interval begins, the shutter speed display will show the number of intervals remaining, and the aperture display will

show the number of shots remaining in the current interval. At other times, the number of intervals remaining and the number of shots in each interval can be viewed by pressing the shutter-release button halfway (once the but- ton is released, the shutter speed and aperture will be displayed until the exposure meters turn off).

To view current interval timer settings, select Intvl timer shooting between shots. While interval timer photography is in progress, the interval tim- er menu will show the starting time, the current time, the shooting interval, the selected number of intervals and number of shots, and the number

of intervals and shots remaining. None of these items can be changed while interval timer photography is in progress.

During Shooting

Shooting and menu settings can be adjusted freely while interval timer photography is in progress. Note the following:

•Performing a two-button reset ( 136) or changing bracketing settings ( 100) will cancel interval timer photography.

•If shutter speed is set to(manual exposure mode) after the timer has started, subsequent photographs will be taken at a shutter speed of 1/3 s.

•The monitor will turn off about four seconds before each interval.

•If voice memos are recorded automatically after shooting, voice memos will end two seconds before the next photograph is taken.

Maximum shots

If the number of shots per interval is greater than the limit specified in Custom Setting d2 (Maximum shots), only the number of shots specified in Custom Setting d2 will be taken at each interval.
