Interchangeable Viewfinders
In addition to the AF Finder DX-1 , the F3AF camera also accepts other interchangeable viewfinders designed for the regular Nikon F3. With them, all Nikkor and Nikon Series E lenses, including the AF-Nikkors, are usable with the F3AF body. Re- gardless of which finder is attached, you still have full automatic exposure control because the meter is built into the camera body rather than the finder. The camera'sautofocus control , however, cannot be used with viewfinders other than the DX-1. The Eyelevel Finder DE-2 offers regular eyelevel viewing and provides an upright and unreversed image in the viewfinder. The High-Eyepoint Finder DE-3 gives you the same eyelevel viewing , but allows eyeglass wearers and action photographers alike to
see the entire frame with the eye up to approx. 25mm away from the eyepiece. The Waist -Level Finder DW-3 is ideal when you want to use the camera at a low angle or upside down over your head for shooting over crowds. The Action Finder DA-2 works well for those situations when you cannot bring your eye close to the finder, such as in fast -breaking sports events, when you are wearing a helmet or goggles, or when the camera is enclosed in waterproof underwater housing . The 6X Magnifi- cation Finder DW-4 is for critical high -magnification close-up work or photomicrography.
When using the DA-2 or DW-3, be careful that stray light does not enter from the top and cause an inflated meter reading .
