• Battery Life
The
number
of
shots
that
can be taken
with
fully-charged batteries varies
with
the condition
of
the battery, temperature, and
how
the
camera
is
used. Sample figures for
EN-EL9a
(1080 mAh) batteries are given below.
•
Single-frame
release
mode
(CIPA
standard'):
Approximately 550 shots
•
Continuous
release
mode
(Nikon
standard
2):
Approximately 2000 shots

s,
focus cycled from

range three times after shutter-release
button
has
been pressed
halfway for 3
s;
six shots are
then
taken in succession and
monitor
turned on for 4
sand
then turned off; cycle repeated once exposure meters have turned off.
The following
can
reduce battery life: using
the
monitor
for extended periods; keeping
the
shutter-release
button
pressed halfway; repeated autofocus operations; taking
NEF
(RAW)
photographs; slow shutter speeds; and using
VR
(vibration reduction)
mode
with
VR
lenses.
To
ensure
that
you
get
the
most from rechargeable Nikon
EN-EL9a
batteries:
• Keep
the
battery contacts clean. Soiled contacts
can
reduce battery performance.
•
Use
batteries immediately after charging. Batteries will lose
their
charge
if
left unused.
