Image Enhancement

Nikon’s unique Picture Control system makes it possible to share
image processing settings, including sharpening, contrast,
brightness, saturation, and hue, among compatible devices and
software.

Selecting a Picture Control

The camera offers six Picture Controls. In

P, S, A, and M modes, you
