Exposure meter: Activated by lightly pressing shutter release button; stays on for approx. 8 sec. after lifting finger from button
Exposure modes: Programmed Auto (PM, P), Shutter-Priority Auto (S), Aperture-Priority Auto (A) and Manual (M) modes
Programmed Auto exposure control: Both shutter speed and aperture are set automatically; Flexible Program in one EV step increments possible
Shutter-Priority Auto exposure control: Aperture automatically selected to match manually set shutter speed
Aperture-Priority Auto exposure control: Shutter speed automatically selected to match manually selected aperture
Manual exposure control: Both aperture and shutter speed are set manually
Exposure compensation: Possible using exposure compensation button within ± 5 EV range in 1/3 EV steps
Auto exposure lock: Available by sliding the AE lock lever while the meter is on
Auto exposure bracketing: 3 or 5 frames can be taken of the same subject using a variety of exposures (with compensation degree of 0.3, 0.7 or 1 EV between each frame)
Shutter: Electromagnetically controlled vertical-travel focal-plane shutter
Shutter release: Electromagnetic type
Shutter speeds: Lithium niobate oscillator-controlled speeds from 1/2000 to 30 sec.; stepless in Programmed auto and Aperture-Priority auto exposure modes; one EV steps in Shutter-Priority auto and Manual exposure modes; Electromagnetically controlled long exposure at B setting
Viewfinder: Fixed eyelevel pentaprism high-eyepoint type; 0.75X magnification with 50mm lens at infinity; 92% frame coverage
Eyepoint: Approx. 18mm

Film speed setting: Auto for DX-coded films and manual setting available
Self-timer: Electronically controlled; timer duration can be selected between 2 and 30 sec. in one sec. increments; blinking LED indicates self-timer operation; two-shot self-timer is possible; can cancel at any time
Reflex mirror: Automatic, instant-return type
Flash sync control: Normal Sync, Slow Sync and Rear-Curtain Sync provided
Built-in TTL flash: Guide number: 43 (at ISO 100, 20°C, ft.); angle of coverage: 28mm lens or longer; TTL auto flash including automatic balanced Fill-Flash is possible
Flash synchronization: In Programmed auto or Aperture-Priority auto, shutter operates 1/125 to 1/60 sec. (or 1/(focal length) in use at lens focal length less than 60mm) in normal sync or 1/125 to 30 sec. in Slow Sync; in Shutter-Priority auto or Manual exposure mode, shutter fires at speed set, and when set from 1/250 to 1/2000sec., shutter is automatically set to 1/125 sec.
Automatic Balanced Fill-Flash: Possible with built-in TTL flash or Nikon dedicated Speedlights such as SB-27, SB-26, SB-23, and SB-16B
Manual flash light output compensation: Can be controlled from +1EV to -3EV in 1/3 step increments
Flash ready-light: Without flash: Blinks when using flash is recommended (with scene brightness darker than EV10 at ISO 100 or scene brightness of EV10 or higher at ISO 100 where the center portion is darker than other areas by more than 1EV) With flash: Lights up when built-in TTL flash or Nikon dedicated Speedlight is ready to fire or blinks to warn of insufficient light for correct exposure
Accessory shoe: Standard ISO-type hot-shoe contact; ready-light contact, TTL flash contact, monitor contact
Film loading: Film automatically advances to first frame when shutter release button is depressed once
Film advance: In S (Single-frame) shooting mode, film automatically advances one frame when shutter is released: in CH (Continuous High) or CL (Continuous Low) shooting mode, shots are taken as long as shutter release button is depressed; in CH mode, shooting speed is approx. 2.0fps, and in CL, approx. 1.2fps
Frame counter: Additive type; counts back while film is rewinding
Film rewind: Automatically rewinds by sliding film rewind lever while pressing film rewind button; approx. 26 sec. per 36-exp. roll or 19 sec. per 24-exposure film roll; stops automatically when film is rewound
Camera back: Hinged back; unchangeable
Power source: 6V lithium battery pack (CR-P2/DL-223A or equivalent)
Checking battery power: Battery power is sufficient if shutter speed and aperture indications appear on the LCD panel and viewfinder by turning camera on or by lightly pressing shutter release button, and remain on for approx. 8 sec. after finger is removed from the button; battery power is insufficient if these indications turn off immediately after finger is removed from the button; if LCD blinks and shutter does not operate, batteries are exhausted or improperly loaded
