Exposure Mode
The D1 offers a choice of four exposure modes: programmed auto, shutter-
priority auto, aperture-priority auto, and manual. This section discusses
shutter-priority auto, aperture-priority auto, and manual exposure modes. For
more information on programmed auto, see “First Steps.”
— Shutter-priority auto
In shutter-priority auto, you set the shutter speed;
the camera automatically adjusts the aperture
to produce the best exposure. Shutter speed
can be set to a value between 30 and
1
/
16,000
seconds. High shutter speeds can be used to
freeze motion, low shutter speeds to blur mov-
ing objects.
To use shutter-priority auto:
1
Holding the MODE button down, rotate the main
command dial until

on top of the camera.
Camera Settings: Exposure Mode
Photographs can only be taken in shutter-priority auto when the lens aperture ring is
set to its maximum f-number. At other aperture settings, the aperture display in the
viewfinder and the control panel on top of the camera will show a blinking FEE and the
shutter will lock.
Shutter-priority auto can only be used with CPU lenses. If another type of lens is
attached, exposure mode is automatically set to aperture priority auto. The exposure
mode display in the control panel on top of the camera will show a blinking S, and A
will appear in the viewfinder. The aperture display in the viewfinder and the control
panel on top of the camera will show F--, indicating that aperture must be set manually
using the aperture ring on the lens.
Noise may appear in photographs taken at slow shutter speeds (speeds of roughly one
second or slower).
