The Pv Button

Pressing the Pv button during viewfinder photography stops lens aperture down to the current value, allowing depth of field to be previewed as long as the button is kept pressed.

  • Optional flash units compatible with the Nikon Creative Lighting System (CLS) will emit a modeling flash. The modeling flash can be disabled by selecting [Off] for Custom Setting e6 [Modeling flash].

  • You can choose the role assigned to the Pv button. Use Custom Settings f3 [Custom controls] and g2 [Custom controls] in the Custom Settings menu to choose the roles played by the button during photography and filming, respectively.
