Manual For Nikon Dx40



Manual Control OptionsThe Nikon D40 has full manual control of exposure, white balance, ISO and focus. Most other Nikon DSLRs offer two control dials for exposure and have other interface refinements that make manual shooting easier. The D40 relies on one control dial for all of these adjustments. **Focus***Auto Focus (4.5)*The Nikon D40 has 3 auto focus sensor sites, arrayed in a row across the center of the frame. This arrangement is inferior to the auto focus systems on previous Nikon DSLRs that have 5-11 sites. It's unusual to see a manufacturer take a backward step like this. Many DSLR users of even very advanced cameras focus, then recompose, which is what D40 users will have to do. The difference is, with more sensors, the shifts can be smaller, and in cases where that is impossible, such as when the sensors should be tracking a moving object, it doesn't work at all. The auto focus system is accurate but slow. We found that it handled dim indoor light, as long as the subject was contrasted. The D40 is noticeably inferior to the D70 and D80 in focusing on our low-contrast subjects. *Manual Focus (7.0)*The Nikon D40's focusing screen is bright and contrasted. We found it easy to focus with the D40 even in subdued light. The kit lens is mechanically sloppy, so it's not as easy to focus with it as it would be with a better-quality Nikon lens. **Exposure*** (9.25)*In addition to setting exposure completely manually, the D40 can set exposure compensation. For normal exposures, the D40 can be set to shoot up to 5 EV above or below the metered reading, in 1/3-EV steps. A button on the camera accesses the exposure compensation feature. Exposure compensation for flash is available only through the camera menu, and runs from 1 EV above to 3 EV below the metered setting.


About the Hasselblad X1D, Gordon wrote: "Menus can be done well. Camera companies...just don't. Hasselblad's X1D interface is sublime. They take full advantage of the touchscreen to make accessing most things incredibly easy and intuitive. If you understand the basics of photography there's no need to read the manual at all."


Re simple cameras, two things to get out of the way first. One is that I don't need a simple camera. I'm not looking for help. It's not like I can't operate any camera, even a very complicated one. I've been reviewing cameras literally half my life. I can take pictures with anything, from an oatmeal carton with a pinhole on up. Second, I'm not advising any manufacturers from a business/marketing standpoint. Yes, I do think they've painted themselves into a corner by making their products unappealing to normal people because of excessive complexification; but I'm not saying that one product that went against the grain would be a hit in the marketplace. Of course it should be a hint that both Leica and Hasselblad lead the way in purposeful, pared-down devices that aren't gummed up with endless options and 750-page manuals. If it's not "What do I know?" Then maybe it's "What do they know?"


I like the 5D idea--a good, relatively unfussy camera with minimal digital infrastructure that's affordable. A couple of manageable issues like dust. Wonderful color. Some great lenses. The manual was a mere 180 pages long. Even the third party books were less than 300 pages. Ah, the good old days! I'm being only a little sarcastic.
