HOLDING THE CAMERA Camera shake is one of the most common causes of unsharp pictures, especially at slow shutter speeds. Learn to hold the “mere correctly and practice steady shutter squeezing.
The photos show the best ways to hold the camera for sharp pic- tures. To cause camera movement and may result in a blurred photo- attach the cable release (Nikon-mount models AR-2, etc.) to graph. The camera, screw the threaded cable connector onto the mount provided around the button. It also minimizes depth of field so that the image snaps in and out of focus distinctly.
The Nikon Type K screen comes with the camera as standard equipment. To focus, turn the focusing ring on the lens until the two halves of the rangefinder image coincide to form a single, crisp image. In focus Out of focus WWW.LENSINC.NET.
Note: Some new optics using Nikon’s Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass, as well as reflex (catadioptric) lenses, do not require refocus- ing for infrared photography. Refer to individual lens instruction manuals for details. DEPTH OF FIELD Depth of field refers to the zone of acceptable focus extend- ing in front of, and behind, the plane of sharpest focus. Within this zone, image blur is negligible and everything may be considered as being in sharp focus. Three factors greatly in- fluence the depth of field: the focal length of the lens in use, the camera-to-subject distance, and the taking aperture. DEPTH OF FIELD - continued Depth-of-Field Indicators Depth of field can be read directly from the distance scale in meters or feet with the aid of the color-coded depth-offield indicators engraved on the lens barrel.
Each pair of colored lines on either side of the central distance scale index line corresponds to f/numbers of the same color on the aperture scale.

STOP-DOWN EPOSURE MEASUREMENT With some Nikkor lenses, full-aperture exposure measurement is not possible, either because the lens has no automatic dia- phragm, or because the lens does not couplewith the finder’s meter;with certain accessories, too, lens/finder coupling is not possible, thus, preventing fullaperture measurement. However, the camera’s Photomic meter can still be used for exposure measurement via the stop-down method.
For fixed-aperture lenses, such as Reflex-Nikkor lenses, simply adjust the shutter-speed selector until the center LED indicator comes on. For convenience, shutter speeds can be set at intermediate settings in the 1/80 sec. To 1/2000 sec. Speed range for precise exposures. If the meter indicates con- tinuous overexposure, use a neutral density filter or slower film.

TIPS ON CAMERA CARE Good camera care is primarily common-sense care. Treat your Nikon F2AS Photomic camera as you would any other precision optical instrument and it will provide you years of trouble-free service.

Coupling Lever Lock/Release Operation The camera’s Photomic finder is fitted with a meter Cou- pling lever that provides for coupling between the finder’s metering circuit and the lens’ meter coupling ridge.
When the camera body is used with lenses offering automatic maxi- mum aperture indexing, the lever remains in the normal po- sition. CHANGING THE VIEWFINDER In addition to the F2AS Photomic finder included with the camera, four other interchangeable viewfinders are available. To remove the F2AS Photom ic finder to mount one of the other units, press the finder release lever inward and rotate toward the front (this action releases the mounting clamps). CHANGING THE FOCUSING SCREEN Nineteen different types of focusing screens are available for use with the Nikon F2AS Photomic camera, each designed to meet specific focusing requirements.
