expected results, or when the lens attached to the camera is not an AF Nikkor
lens.

To use manual focus, set the focus mode selector to M (A). Adjust focus using
the lens focusing ring (B) until the image displayed on the clear matte field in

Using the electronic range finder
A B
Set the focus mode selector to M and half-press the shutter-release button.
Before the focus indicator in the viewfinder disappears, rotate the lens focusing
ring (A) until the in-focus indicator () is displayed.
If the indicator appears in the viewfinder, the camera is focused on a point
between the camera and the subject. The indicator appears when the
camera is focused on a point behind the subject. Note that a photograph can
be taken even when the in-focus indicator is not displayed in the viewfinder.

The D1’s built-in electronic range finder is compatible with most Nikkor lenses
(including AF Nikkor lenses when used with manual focus) with a maximum aperture
of f/5.6 or faster, and can be used when focusing on subjects in any of the five focus
areas (see “Focus Area,” above).
