Nikon D70 secrets
Fotolia has a list of 10 Nikon D70 Secrets which was re-published from Popular Photography’s Magazine, October 2005 issue. Here’s the first five:
Nikon d70 Secrets
1. Centerweighted Tip: Custom setting 11 in the menu lets you select 6, 8, 10, or 12mm for center weighted metering.
2. Hollow Battery: Hey, the hollow tube sitting in the D70 is not a fake battery. It’s a battery holder that accepts three CR2 lithium cells, and then fits into the camera’s standard battery compartment.
3. Now you see them - now you don’t grids: Clearly one of Popular Photography magazines favorite features is the on-demand grid lines. You can activate grid lines in setting 8, Grid Display.
4. ISO Auto: In custom setting 5 ISO Option. If you are going to be shooting in a wide variety of light conditions and don’t ant to mess around with ISO settings the D70 will maintain the ISO you set when possible.
5. Pop the flash and all your setting change: In custom setting 5, ISO Option activate automatic ISO setting THEN go one menu deeper and select your slowest shutter-speed threshold - down to 30 sec if you want. Once programmed the D70 will go to the slowest threshold shutter BEFORE adjusting the ISO. Cool!
