restrictions apply to PC lenses) and DX lenses (using DX 24 × 16 1.5x image
area), AI-P NIKKOR lenses and non-CPU lenses. IX NIKKOR lenses and lenses
for the F3AF cannot be used
The electronic rangefinder can be used with lenses that have a maximum ap-
erture of f/5.6 or faster (the electronic rangefinder supports the center 7 focus
points with lenses that have a maximum aperture of f/8 or faster and the center
33 focus points with lenses that have a maximum aperture of f/7.1 or faster)

command dial), X200 (with shutter-speed dial only), bulb, time

Flash sync speed

X=1/200 s; synchronizes with shutter at 1/250 s or slower (flash range drops at
speeds between 1/200 and 1/250s)

Exposure metering

TTL exposure metering using 2016-pixel RGB sensor

Metering method

• Matrix: 3D color matrix metering II (type G, E and D lenses); color matrix
metering II (other CPU lenses); color matrix metering available with non-CPU
lenses if user provides lens data

• Center-weighted: Weight of 75% given to 12-mm circle in center of frame;
diameter of circle can be changed to 8, 15, or 20 mm, or weighting can be
based on average of entire frame (non-CPU lenses use 12-mm circle)

• Spot: Meters 4-mm circle (about 1.5% of frame) centered on selected focus
point (on center focus point when non-CPU lens is used)

Metering range (ISO 100,  • Matrix or center-weighted metering: 0 to 20 EV
f/1.4 lens, 20°C/68°F)   • Spot metering: 2 to 20 EV
Exposure meter coupling  Combined CPU and AI (collapsible metering coupling lever)

priority auto (A); manual (M)
