, which automatically
achieves proper white balance by
extracting white light from the light
coming through the lens to deliver highly
accurate coloration. Then,
Tone
Compensation
selects the optimal tone
curve to enable the reproduction of
natural tones according to the scene
brightness and contrast. These three
innovative features offered by the D1
give you increased control over total
picture quality for incomparable results
in digital imaging. Automatically.
High-quality, high-speed
system LSI
A newly developed system LSI incorporates hardware which handles various
tasks including a newly developed
image-processing algorithm and JPEG
compression/decompression. This
algorithm complements highquality image
processing with
accurate color
interpolation
to reduce
color artifacts,
and pixel
interpolation for
smoother and
sharper lines.
The system LSI
can instantly
handle the data
from the 2.74-megapixel CCD, maximizing processing speed. Together with the
color matrix that provides natural colors,
the D1 delivers high-definition images
with excellent color balance.
Low-Pass Filter
The D1 employs a Low-Pass Filter that is
made of a new material and features
ultra-thin construction which allows it to
be established internally, just in front of
the CCD, to prevent color aliasing.
An infrared ray (IR) reduction filter is
also included, ensuring excellent color
reproduction by eliminating the effects
of IR.
Versatile image quality modes
You can select from among three
compressed modes (approx. 1/4, 1/8,
1/16 compressed JPEG), three
uncompressed modes (12-bit Raw
*
, 8-bit
RGB-TIFF , 8-bit YCbCr-TIFF
*
) and
monochrome mode.
* Optional software is needed to reproduce images;
“Nikon Capture” for Raw/YCbCr-TIFF mode, “Nikon View
DX” for YCbCr-TIFF mode.
Improved overall
picture quality
grainy images than are attainable when
using high-speed film. The adoption of
an RGB filter provides high resolution
and well-balanced color reproduction.
3D Digital Matrix Image Control
Using a 1,005-pixel RGB exposure/color
metering sensor, the D1 automatically
produces outstanding digital images. This
system is called 3D Digital Matrix Image
Control, which results from the cooperative efforts of three high-performance
features —
3D Color Matrix Metering,
TTL White Balance
and Tone

q 3D Color Matrix Metering
Performance-proven 3D Color
Matrix Metering, originally designed
for the Nikon F5, is also incorporated
into the D1. This metering mode can
handle even the most difficult lighting conditions, assuring you of the
best possible exposure for every shot.
w Center-Weighted Metering
This mode affords you a high degree
of control. The meter concentrates
75% of its sensitivity on the 8mm-diameter
circle while feathering the rest out to the
edges, resulting in excellent overall balance.
e Spot Metering
The Spot Metering mode offers pinpoint
accuracy, reading a 4mm-diameter circle,
which is approx. 2% of the imaging area.
As you change the selected focus area
manually (choose from five areas), the
sensing area is automatically adjusted
accordingly for optimum individual control

Digital imaging versatility
TTL White Balance
To complement the high-precision Auto
mode with its extremely natural coloration,
the D1 provides Preset mode and Manual
mode for white balance settings.
In
Preset mode, a value previously mea-
sured by TTL white balance can be stored
and recalled.
Manual mode provides six
settings; 1) Incandescent light,
2) Fluorescent light, 3) Fine weather,
4) Cloudy weather, 5) Shade and 6) Flash
condition, with further seven-step fine-tuning according to your preference.
area is indicated on the top LCD panel and
superimposed (red) in the viewfinder; and
2) Dynamic AF — when you select this
mode with
(C) AF mode, you can choose
the focus area that best suits the composition. If the subject moves out of the selected
focus area, Dynamic AF instantly shifts the
focus to another of the five areas. In
(S)AF
mode, the
Closest Subject Priority func-
tion
automatically selects the focus area
with the closest subject so that you can concentrate on shutter timing.
Focus Tracking
Focus Tracking is automatically activated
when your subject starts to move, regardless of the AF mode or AF area mode
selected. The computer-assisted system
analyzes the speed and anticipates the
direction of movement of the subject
while driving the autofocus. Focus
Tracking is augmented by
overlap servo,
which ensures constant lens focusing
adjustment — even during driving —
and
Lock On™, which allows continuous
tracking of a subject, even in the event
that it’s momentarily obscured.
Rapid data transfer with
IEEE1394 (400Mbps)
The high-speed interface, IEEE1394
(400Mbps), makes possible the transfer
of great amounts of data at a super-high
rate. It enables you to take full advantage
of the D1’s
digital
capabilities,
especially
during studio
photography.
30 sec. to an amazing 1/16,000 sec., which
can freeze virtually any subject in action.
The maximum flash sync speed of up to
1/500 sec. expands your aperture choices
for fill-flash photography in daylight.
Four-step sensitivity settings
including ISO 1,600 equivalency
You can manually set the sensitivity
from ISO-equivalent 200, 400, 800 and
high-speed 1,600.
High-speed AF System
The D1 features the same performanceproven Multi-CAM1300 autofocus sensor
module incorporating five AF sensors as the
Nikon F5 and F100.
Focus mode
The D1 offers high-speed, accurate autofocus in Single Servo
(S) AF or Continuous
Servo
(C) AF mode, along with fully
mechanical Manual focus
(M), adding
smoothness and precision to operation.
AF area mode
The D1 provides two AF area modes:
1) Single Area AF — this mode gives you
five strategic
focusing positions
to work with in
the frame. The

Tone Compensation
The optimal tone curve is set automatically
by
3D Digital Matrix Image Control. If,
however, you prefer a lighter or heavier
tone, you can choose from four preset tone
curves via Custom Setting #24. And, using
the optional “Nikon Capture” Control
Software, you can even create an original
tone curve with a personal computer.
Sharpness
Custom Setting #23 lets you choose from
four preset values to control the sharpness
of the image.
Charge-coupled electronic
and mechanical shutters
If intense light is
received by the
CCD during data
processing, this can
adversely affect the
data, resulting in the
emergence of smear.
The D1 alleviates
this problem by incorporating a mechanical
shutter in addition to
the charge-coupled
electronic shutter to
cut out the light,
enabling the CCD to
capture high-quality
images.

Lightweight,
tough magnesium body
A rugged magnesium (Mg) body
lends valuable
rigidity and
strength to the D1
and allows for
lighter, smaller
construction, making the camera
remarkably
resilient yet portable. This
eminently portable, super-solid
Nikon construction featuring a high resistance to penetration by water drops
matching the F5, enables the D1 to function in a variety of situations and under
the most adverse conditions.
Operability rivaling Nikon
F5 and F100
From its predecessors, the renowned F5 and
F100, the D1 inherits the dual command-dial
style, which simplifies and accelerates operation. The Custom Setting feature enables
you to bypass the camera’s default 31 settings and create your own assortment of settings (two groups can be memorized and
recalled). Add an intelligent control
layout and the ability to easily take vertical
shots, and you’ve got a camera with a degree
of operability rivaling Nikon’s finest SLRs.
Viewfinder
The D1 provides an optical-type fixed
eye-level pentaprism viewfinder which
features frame coverage of approx. 96%,

Quality High speed Convenience
Using “Nikon View DX”, data recorded
in the CF card in the D1 body can be
recognized as independent media on the
desktop of the computer via the
IEEE1394 interface.
“Nikon Capture” Control Software
Via an IEEE1394 interface, “Nikon
Capture” allows you to operate virtually
all functions of the D1 — including image
data reading, remote shooting and custom
settings such as tone compensation —
from your personal computer. Since the
image data are directly transmitted to and
stored in your computer without memory
cards, you have plenty of time to read
data, making it great for studio photo
shooting. It also downloads and processes
12-bit Raw data — direct output data of
the CCD image sensor — to reproduce
2.7-megapixel Raw images.
NOTE: “Nikon Capture” is needed to reproduce Raw/YCbCr-TIFF
mode; “Nikon View DX” is needed to reproduce
YCbCr-TIFF mode.
Interchangeable Ni-MH
Battery Pack EN-4
With the optional interchangeable Ni-MH
Battery Pack EN-4, you can enjoy up to
approx. 1,000 picture’s

worth of extended
shooting thanks to the long-life, durable and
rechargeable Ni-MH battery. It can be
recharged using the optional Quick Charger
MH-16 (the F100’s Quick Charger MH-15
and the E3’s EH-3 can also be used).
