Test 1 Using an AF-S VR 24-120mm f/.3.5-5.6G IF-ED lens, Vibration Reduction function on, in Continuous Servo AF with film advance mode at S and shutter speed of 1/250 second. After lightly pressing the shutter release button for 8 seconds, autofocus operation covers the full range from infinity () to the closest distance and back to infinity () before each shot. After the exposure meter automatically turns off, the same operation follows for the next shot.
