Preparqtion for
       Taking Piclures

Thot the most brilliont resultr ccn be hod by rimple hcndling
 is qn oulslonding feoture of the Nikon Comero.

The following three bosic fqclers qre to be considered before
 toking o picture with lhe Nikon.

  l.   Shutter speed-Setling of speed
      Wind shuiter up firsl qnd fhen sef the shutter speed.
      See Fig. 5-9.

     Lens openi4g,-Seliing of diophrogm opening
        Lens operlure is set by turning lens diophrogm ring.
      See Fig. 10.

 3.  Focusing-Selling of distonce
   .   A focus is obtoined when double irnoge in the ronge.
         finder is broughf to coincidence.

      Shuffer Speed

 lTinding Knob
 Turn the winding knob clockwise until  'it  stops (FiS.S).,
 This meons thot fhe knob hos mode one complete turn, od-
voncing one frome of film for exposure, ond thot lhe shutter
hos been wound ond is reody for releose

 Shutter Dials
There ore two  shutter speed diols, fost ond slow, orronged
one on top of  the  other.  The engroved numbers on  the
diols  indicote  froctions of  o  second, e.g. 60 meons l,/60
sec. exposure lime.
To set lhe shulfer bring the desired speed ffgure to the orrow.
Shutter setting should always be made after winding the
film. !f shutter speed is set before film winding, correct
shutter operation will not resutt.
When fost shuller is releosed, the diol mokes o. clockwise,lur,n,
ond brings the shutter speed figure from ihe orrow to the red                                                                                                     t.t,mork. Incidentolly, this foct serves to show whot shutter speed
wos used on the previous piCiure, in cose this knowledge is
desired before winding shutter for the next exposure.

so    Lens Focusing
Press the infinity lock (Fig. ll) ond rototer the lens focusing

Focusing  is obtoined, when lhe double imoge of lhe subiecl

focusing wheel (Fig. 12, l3).
In oscerloining coincidence, verlicol lines of the imoge ore

the double imoge disoppeors.
Whcn thc comero is held verticolly, however,  it is the horizonfol

The focusing dislonce or octuql dislqnce belween comero ond

 How fo Hold Camera
 It is obsolufely importon, to hold comero steody ovoiding o
pOssible shcke or shifting of comero when shutfer is reteosed,
 in order to moke o shorp picture (Fig. 14 ond l5).
Therefore,  il is suggested thol the cqmero be steodily pressed

..ogoinsl foreheod when in verticol posifion, ond to hold il  in
both honds, using the righthond index finger to operote lhe

www.butkus.us      Depth           of Field
 Depth of field is, by definition, o ronge of disfonce between
 the neoresl ond the forthest limits within which o comero
 subiecl gives permissible shorpness of irnoge.
 Depthof field depends upon lhe lens opening (f '1.4, f '5.6,
 f  : 8, elc) ond upon the disfonce from fhe €omero to the
obiett upon which the lens is focused. The smoller lhe
 operlure used, lhe greoter lhe depth of  field ond in the
 opposite woy lhe lorger lhe operture, lhe smoller fhe depth
 of field.
                               ln the Nikon Comero the depth
                           of field is so designed os lo
                      be reod, nol by reference to
                     o seporote toble, but directiy
                       from fhe revolving  dislonce
                               scole, which is -used in com'
                                  binotion with the depth of field
                             scole, orronged symmetricolly
                            qround the index dof, engroved
                       on fhe lens mount bose.
        Example
Focus the lens on on obiect 20 feet owoy from the cctmero,
Evhich couses fhe 20 feet morking of fhe distonce scole to
resl ogoinst lhe index dot on the depth of field scole. Set
fhe lens opening to f : 8 (Fig. lZ).
The depth of focus sought is o ronge of disloncc on the
distonce scqle lhof folls between lhe two f : B morkings on
fhe depth of field scole, one ot either side of index dot,
nomefy 12-50 tt.
In other words, piqtures token qt   , f  : 8 opening of  obiecta
lyihg belween 12 feet qnd 50 feet from the comero will be
lhorp enough; Everything else will be out of focus in some
degree.

Doubfe Exposure
 By lurning winding knob the film is odvonced for the next
 exposure. Unless you do lhis, lhe shutter releose will not
 operote, thus prevenfing o possibrlity of double exposure.
 Should, however, o double exposure be desired for some
 porticulor reoson or other, do os follows ,-
 Afler the firsl exposure push the shulter releose bullon ogoi:r
 (Fig. l8), ond without releosing your finger off the button, iurn
 left the highspeed diol os for os it goes ond stops, lhen
 toke off your finger from the button. Shutter is now reody
 fo operote. (ln lhe course of the obove procedure you musf
 nol turn lhe windirrg knob.)
 lf you require o  different shutter speed for the double
 (seconC) exposure from the firsl, you moy re-set fhe shutter
 diol.
    Infrq-Red Picture
