Shutter

 

 

Type

Electronically-controlled vertical-travel focal-plane

 

 

shutter

 

Speed

1/8000 – 30 s in steps of 1/3, 1/2, or 1 EV, bulb, X250

 

Flash sync speed

X=1/250 s; synchronizes with shutter at 1/320 s or slower

 

 

(flash range drops at speeds between 1/250 and 1/320 s)

 

 

 

 

Release

 

 

Release mode

S (single frame), CL (continuous low speed), CH

 

 

(continuous high speed), a(live view), E(self-timer),

 

 

MUP (mirror up)

 

Frame advance rate

• With EN-EL3e: Up to 6 fps

 

 

• With optional MB-D10 multi-power battery pack and EN-EL4a/

 

 

EN-EL4 or AA batteries or with optional EH-5a/EH-5 AC adapter:

 

 

Up to 7 (CL) or 8 fps (CH)

 

Self-timer

Can be selected from 2, 5, 10, and 20 s duration

 

 

 

 

Exposure

 

 

Metering

TTL exposure metering using 1,005-segment RGB

 

 

sensor

 

Metering method

• Matrix: 3D color matrix metering II (type G and D

 

 

lenses); color matrix metering II (other CPU lenses);

 

 

color matrix metering available with non-CPU lenses

 

 

if user provides lens data

 

 

• Center-weighted: Weight of 75% given to 8-mm circle in

 

 

center of frame. Diameter of circle can be changed to

 

 

6, 10, or 13 mm, or weighting can be based on

 

 

average of entire frame (fixed at 8 mm when non-

 

 

CPU lens is used)

 

 

• Spot: Meters 3-mm circle (about 2% of frame)

 

 

centered on selected focus point (on center focus

 

 

point when non-CPU lens is used)

 

Range (ISO 100, f/1.4

• Matrix or center-weighted metering: 0–20 EV

 

lens, 20 °C/68 °F)

• Spot metering: 2–20 EV

n

Exposure meter coupling

Combined CPU and AI

 

Exposure mode

Programmed auto with flexible program (e); shutter-

 

 

priority auto (f); aperture priority auto (g); manual (h)

 

Exposure compensation

–5 – +5 EV in increments of 1/3, 1/2, or 1 EV
