How to set the d800 menu

The method is as follows:

The Shooting Menu Library mainly provides the global settings needed for shooting. The red content is different from the factory settings, and some of them are considered as follows:

1. Expand the shooting menu library, which is a new function provided by D800 and D4. If "On" is selected, each time the four shooting menu libraries use the corresponding exposure mode, shutter speed (M and S modes only) and aperture (M and A modes only), they will be automatically recorded, and will be automatically restored when switching to this shooting library next time. This function is good, so naturally choose "On".

2. In order to distinguish the photos taken by different shooting libraries, Lao Fan chose to use four shooting libraries with different file names.

3. Other changes and settings of the shooting library depend entirely on your own preferences and understanding of shooting four scenes. Different preferences and understandings have different effects on the format, size and quality of photo files.

4. Multiple exposure, interval shooting, timed shooting and animation setting are only used in a few cases and are not set in the gallery settings.

The "Custom Settings Library" is preset in advance according to the specific settings when shooting four scenes. Red content is different from the default setting, some of which are considered as follows:

1. autofocus part: the continuous shooting mode of AF-C adopts the fast mode of "release+focus" to reduce the time occupied by focusing; In AF-S mode, sports and bird shooting scenes are directly released and captured as targets (not commonly used). Built-in AF auxiliary lighting is turned off except for portrait shooting, because the other three modes do not need auxiliary lighting. The focus of portrait photography is reduced to 1 1, which is my personal preference. /span>。

The current firmware of D800 has a defect, that is, "a4 triggers AF". If "AF-ON button only" is selected, the shutter can still be released when focusing is not completed. When "Shutter /AF-ON button" is selected, it cannot be released when the shutter is out of focus.

2. Exposure/metering: This part of the change is entirely personal preference.

3. Timing /AE lock: This part of the change is entirely personal preference.

4, shooting/display: This part of the change is entirely personal preference.

5. Surround/Flash: The analog flash is turned off, except for portraits. Portrait and landscape library respectively choose two speeds of flash high-speed synchronization; The other mode does not choose high-speed synchronization. One of the best features of Nikon's fuselage is that the flash command flashes. The built-in flash CMD is set in the portrait library and can flash the external flash. Please check your preferences for specific settings.

6. Control: People who are used to D200 and D700 will definitely think that the D800 indicator light is not set normally, but it provides the function of "f 12 inverted display". Multiple center buttons can select different functions in different modes, and it is best to select histogram when viewing; Select "Zoom in" for live view. "f4 specifies Fn button" must be reserved for imaginary level, and the function of D800 to observe the left and right imaginary levels and the front and rear imaginary levels in the view frame is very easy to use.

7. Animation: According to personal preference, all scenes can be selected consistently.
