Dust Ref Photo

This option is used to acquire reference data for the Image Dust Off function in Nikon Capture 4 version 4.1 or later (for more information on Image Dust Off, see the Nikon Capture 4 User’s Manual).

To acquire Image Dust Off reference data:

1 Attach a CPU lens. Dust ref photo is only available when a CPU lens is mounted on the camera. We recommend using a lens with a focal length of at least 50 mm. If using a zoom lens, zoom in to the maximum telephoto position.

Menu

2 Highlight Dust ref photo in the setup menu ( 155) and press the multi selector to the right. The menu shown at right will be displayed.

3 Highlight Yes and press the multi selector to the right (to exit to the setup menu without acquiring Image Dust Off reference data, highlight No and press the multi selector to the right). Camera settings will automatically be adjusted for Image Dust Off. The message

shown at right will be displayed, and will be displayed in the viewfinder and control panel. To cancel the operation and return to the setup menu, press the button or press the multi selector to the left. The operation will also be cancelled when the camera or monitor is turned off.

Image Dust Off

The Image Dust Off feature in Nikon Capture 4 (available separately) processes NEF (RAW) photographs to remove the effects of dust in the camera imaging system by comparing the images to the data acquired with Dust ref photo. It is not available with JPEG images. The D70 can be used with Nikon Capture 4 version 4.1 or later.
