NNikon Standard

The Nikon Standard for “shots per charge” battery information for its cameras is based on testing done by Nikon Inc.

Example: A Nikon D3 equipped with an AF-S VR 70–200mm f/2.8 ED lens captured 4,700 images when measured at 20 °C/68 °F under the following test conditions: image quality set to JPEG normal; image size set to L (large); shutter speed 1/250 sec.; shutter-release button pressed halfway for three seconds and focus cycled from infinity to minimum range three times; six shots taken in succession with the monitor turned on for five seconds and then turned off; cycle repeated once exposure meters have turned off.

Real life results will vary depending on factors such as temperature, use conditions and the number of times the battery is recharged.

Zoom Lens
A lens with a mechanical assembly of elements that permits the variance of the focal length and thus the angle of view, as opposed to a prime lens, which has a fixed focal length.
Zettabyte (zb)
A zettabyte is a unit of information equal to 1,024 exabytes or approximately 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 bytes.
Zoom Memory Function
The Zoom Memory function allows the camera’s zoom lens to be used in a way that simulates use of a prime lens, and is ideal for shooting at a preferred angle of view.
ZooM
Automatic Power Zoom feature of Nikon Speedlights. The zoom head is automatically adjusted according to the focal length of the lens in use.
Zoom Flash
A flash unit with a mechanism that adjusts the angle of coverage according to the focal length of the lens in use.
Zooming During Exposure
A technique in which the zoom ring of a lens is turned as the exposure is made. The technique creates radiating lines from the center of the frame and imparts a strong feeling of movement.
