Shooting
Exposure:
•
It is recommended to set [Metering] to [Center-weighted]. Optimal exposure may not be obtained if [Matrix] or [Spot] is set.
•
The Digiscoping System differs in optical properties from interchangeable lenses. Therefore, the exposure level may vary
with each camera. Make exposure compensation if necessary. A short focal length for zooming, in particular, may require
exposure compensation.
Focus:
•
At the time of shooting, make focus adjustments by turning the focus ring of the fieldscope while seeing the object on the
LCD monitor or viewfinder of the camera, and make fine adjustments with the AF (autofocus) function of the camera.
•
It will be difficult to make focus adjustments in the following cases. Make LCD setting changes for Nikon 1 if necessary.
- If the image in the viewfinder is dark at the time of telephoto shooting
- If the object is dark
Shutter release:
•
Gently press the provided cable release, if used. Do not press the shutter release too strongly, or otherwise the set position
of the camera may tilt.
•
Use a cable release, self-timer, or remote control to prevent vibration because of high-magnification shooting.
