GLOSSARY
AE (Automatic Exposure) lock
Used to hold an automatically controlled shutter speed and/or
aperture. Recommended when the photographer wants to
control an exposure based on a scene's particular brightness
area with Center-Weighted or Spot Metering.
All Mode Exposure Bracketing
All Mode Exposure Bracketing performs automatic exposure
bracketing with varied shutter speed and/or aperture in all
exposure modes. (See "Exposure bracketing" .)
Automatic Balanced Fill-Flash
A type of TIL auto flash operation which uses the camera's
exposure meter to control ambient light exposure settings,
integrated with flash exposure control. That is, flash output level
is automatically compensated to balance with ambient light,
resulting in a better exposure for both subject and background.
Nikon's Automatic Balanced Fill-Flash system includes: 3D
Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill-Flash, Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill-
Flash, Matrix Balanced Fill-Flash', Center-Weighted Fill-Flash
and Spot Fill-Flash. 3D Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill-Flash and
Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill-Flash together comprise Automatic
Balanced Fill-Flash with TIL Multi-Sensor (p. 86). Performance
varies with the combination of camera body, Speedlight and
lens used
• Not availabte with N70 camera.

With the built-in flash or dedicated Nikon Speedlight, the N70
performs Automatic Balanced Fill-Flash with TIL Multi-Sensor
for a built-in flash or compatible Nikon TIL Speedlight (p. 98).
Auto-Multi Program
With Auto-Multi Program, more than two combinations of
shutter speed/aperture are applied. When lens focal length in
use is shifted, shutter speed/aperture combination shifts while
maintaining correct exposure.
Balanced fill-flash operation
A technique in flash photography in which flash illumination is
controlled to balance it with the ambient light on the scene.
Continuous Servo AF
Focus detection continues for as long as the shutter release
button is lightly pressed and the reflex mirror is in the viewing
position. Useful when camera-to-subject distance is likely to
change.
CPU
Central Processing Unit. The electronic component which
controls an electronic product's functions.
AF Nikkor (including O-type AF Nikkor) and AI-P-Nikkor lenses
have built-in CPUs.
