dImage Recording Options

Image Area

Choose the aspect ratio and angle of view (image area). Thanks to the camera’s FX format (35.9 × 24 mm) image sensor, you can choose from angles of view as wide as those supported by 35 mm (135) format film cameras, while automatically cropping pictures to the DX angle of view when using DX format lenses. See page 335 for information on the number of pictures that can be stored at different image area settings.

ADX Lenses

DX lenses are designed for use with DX format cameras and have a smaller angle of view than lenses for 35mm format cameras. If Auto DX crop is off and FX (36×24) 1.0× (FX format) is selected for Choose image area when a DX lens is attached, the edges of the image may be eclipsed. This may not be apparent in the viewfinder, but when the images are played back you may notice a drop in resolution or that the edges of the picture are blacked out.
