Before Using Your Camera
q Camera Characteristics
Features a 23.5×15.7 mm CCD with 10.20 million effective pixels for
high precision and a wide dynamic range.
Features Shake Reduction (SR), a CCD shifting shake reduction
system. This enables you to capture sharp pictures with minimal camera
shake regardless of the lens type.
Features an AF sensor with 11 focusing points. The central 9 are wide
cross area sensors.
Features a viewfinder similar to that of a conventional 35 mm camera,
with a 0.95 magnification and 95% field of view, for easier manual
focusing. Also features a superimpose function in which the AF points
on the viewfinder illuminate red.
Features a large 2.5-inch LCD monitor with 210,000 pixels, a wide
viewing angle and a brightness adjusting function for high-precision
viewing performance.
Features a Digital Preview function for checking the image to ensure that
the desired result is achieved.
A user-friendly design has been implemented in various parts of the
camera. The large, high-resolution LCD monitor and easy-to-use menus
make the camera easier to operate.
Dials, buttons, body joints, and retractable parts of the camera are
splash and dust resistant.
The CCD features a special SP coating against dust deposit. The Dust
Removal function also shakes the CCD for removing collected dust.
Supports the optional Battery Grip D-BG2 with vertical shutter release
button. If a battery (D-LI50) is inserted in both the camera and grip, the
battery with more power is prioritized. This enables you to get the best
camera performance for an extended period. A menu item also allows
you to prioritize a battery and use its full power before switching to the
other battery.
Records in the versatile JPEG format or the high quality and fully
editable RAW format. You can also select JPEG+RAW and record in
both formats. Pictures taken in RAW format can be processed easily.
Features Hyper-program and Hyper-manual modes that let you take
pictures with the intended exposure. Also features Sensitivity Priority
mode K that automatically adjusts aperture and shutter speed
according to the set sensitivity, and Shutter & Aperture Priority mode
