The D1 can be set to increase or decrease the sharpness of edges in
photographs recorded using the camera.
Option: 0 Normal (default)
1 Low
2 High
3 None
24. Tone Compensation
This setting controls the image compensation performed by the camera
when a photograph is taken. Compensation is performed by means of
curves which define the relationship between the tone distribution in the
original image and the compensated result. By default, the D1 automati-
cally adjusts tonal range and distribution for optimal results when matrix
metering is used. At settings other than RAW (when data from the CCD are
recorded directly to the memory card without adjustment), you can choose
from auto, normal, low-contrast, and high-contrast settings. You can also
use custom curves created and downloaded to the camera using Nikon
Capture software for the D1 (available separately). The default custom
curve is linear.
Option: 0 Auto (default)—camera adjusts curves to produce optimal
contrast (matrix metering only; when another metering method
is used, this option is equivalent to option 1, i.e. normal tone
compensation)
1 Normal—this curve is suitable for scenes with a normal
distribution of shadows, mid-tones, and highlights
2 Low-contrast—use this curve to prevent highlights in brightly-
lit scenes from being "washed out"
3 High-contrast—use this curve to bring out hazy background
details
4 User-defined custom curve
25. Shooting Speed in Continuous Shooting Mode
This item can be used to adjust the frame advance rate in continuous
shooting mode.
Option: Ch Approx. 4.5 frames per second (default)
3 Approx. 3 fps
2 Approx. 2 fps
1 Approx. 1 fps
CL Each photograph is written to the memory card before the
following photograph is taken. Photographs are not stored in
the temporary memory buffer.
