Page 35 Protect the Camera from Dirt and Dust Any dust, dirt, or other foreign matter inside your cam era could show up as specks or blotches in your pho to graphs or the viewﬁ nder display. When no lens is in place, keep the lens mount covered with the supplied BF-1A body cap .
Page 36: Step 5-Insert A Memory Card
Step 5—Insert a Memory Card In place of ﬁ lm, the D2Hs uses CompactFlash memory cards or microdrive cards to store photographs. For a list of approved mem o ry cards, see “Tech- nical Notes: Approved Memory Cards” ( .1 Turn the cam era off Turn the cam era off before inserting or re- mov ing mem o ry cards.

Page 64: Sensitivity (Iso Equivalency)
Sensitivity (ISO Equivalency) “Sensitivity” is the digital equivalent of ﬁ lm speed. The higher the sensitivity, the less light needed to make an exposure, allowing higher shutter speeds or smaller apertures. Sensitivity can be set between values roughly equivalent to ISO 200 and ISO 1600 in steps equivalent to 1 EV and 2 EV over ISO 1600) are avail able where high sensitivity is a priority.
Page 65 HI-1 / HI-2 The higher the sensitivity, the more likely pictures are to be subject to “noise” in the form of randomly-spaced, brightly-colored pixels. Pho tos taken at HI-1 or HI-2 will likely con tain ap pre cia ble amounts of noise. High ISO NR ( 165) This option can be used to reduce noise at sensitivities of ISO 800 or more.

Page 96: Exposure
Exposure Metering The metering method determines how the cam era sets exposure: Method 1,005-pixel RGB sensor sets exposure based on variety of information from all areas of frame. With type G or D lens, camera uses 3D color matrix metering II for natural results even when frame is dominated by bright (white or yellow) or dark (black or dark green) colors.
Page 97: Exposure Mode
Exposure Mode Exposure mode determines how the camera sets shutter speed and aperture when adjusting exposure. Four modes are available: programmed auto (P), shutter-priority auto (S), aperture-priority auto (A), and manual (M). CPU Lenses When using a CPU lens equipped with an aperture ring, lock the aperture ring at the min i mum aperture (highest f/-number).
Page 98 P: Programmed Auto In this mode, the camera automatically adjusts shutter speed and aperture ac cord ing to a built-in program (see below) for optimal exposure in most sit u a tions. This mode is recommended for snapshots and other sit u a tions in which you want to leave the camera in charge of shutter speed and aperture.
Page 99 Flexible Program In programmed auto, different com bi na tions of shutter speed and ap er ture can be selected by rotating the main com mand dial (“ﬂ exible program”). All combinations pro duce the same ex po sure. While ﬂ exible program is in effect, an asterisk (“*”) appears next to the exposure- mode indicator in the top control panel.
Page 100 S: Shutter-Priority Auto In shutter-priority auto, you choose the shutter speed while the camera au to mat i cal ly selects the aperture that will produce the optimal exposure. Shutter speed can be set to values between 30 s and speeds to suggest motion by blurring moving objects, high shutter speeds to “freeze”...
Page 101 Non-CPU Lenses Exposure mode A (aperture-priority auto) is automatically selected when a non-CPU lens is attached. The exposure mode indicator (S) in the top control panel will blink and A will be displayed in the viewﬁ nder. For more information, see “Aperture-Priority Auto”...
Page 102 A: Aperture-Priority Auto In aperture-priority auto, you choose the aperture while the camera au to - mat i cal ly selects the shut ter speed that will produce the optimal exposure. Small apertures (high f/-numbers) increase depth of ﬁ eld, bringing both the main subject and back ground into focus.
Page 103 Non-CPU Lenses If the maximum aperture of the lens has been speciﬁ ed using the Non-CPU lens data item in shooting menu 126) when a non-CPU lens is attached, the current f/-number will be displayed in the viewﬁ nder and top control panel, rounded to the nearest full stop.

Nikon recommends using a fully-charged EN-EL4 battery or an optional EH-6 AC adapter to prevent loss of power while the shutter is open.

Page 106 Shutter-Speed and Aperture Lock button can be used to lock shutter speed at the value selected in shut- ter-priority auto or manual exposure mode, or to lock aperture at the value selected in aperture-priority auto and manual exposure modes. Lock is not available in programmed auto.
Page 107: Autoexposure Lock
Autoexposure Lock When center-weighted metering is used, an area in the center of the frame is assigned the greatest weight when determining exposure. Similarly, when spot metering is used, exposure is based upon lighting conditions in the se- lected focus area. If the subject is not in the metered area when the picture is taken, exposure will be based on lighting conditions in the back ground, and the main sub ject may be under- or over-exposed.
Page 108 Keeping the AE-L/AF-L but ton pressed, re com pose the pho to graph and shoot. Metered Area In spot metering, exposure will be locked at the value metered in a 3-mm (0.12˝) circle centered on the selected focus area.
