Problems and solutions Solutions to some common issues are listed below. Battery/display ● The camera is on but does not respond: ･ Wait for recording and other operations to end. ･ If the problem persists, turn the camera off. ･ If the camera does not turn off, remove and reinsert the battery. - Any data currently being recorded will be lost. - Data that have already been recorded are not affected by removing the battery.
Shooting ● The camera takes time to turn on: More time will be needed to find files if the memory card contains large numbers of files or folders. ● The shutter cannot be released: ･ Is a memory card inserted, and if so, does it have space available? ･ Is the memory card write-protected? ･ If you selected mode S after selecting a shutter speed of “Bulb” or “Time” in mode M, choose a different shutter speed.
･ Select an option other than [Off] for [Beep options] > [Beep on/off] in the setup menu. ･ The beep does not sound in video mode. ● The full range of shutter speeds is not available: Using a flash restricts the range of shutter speeds available. Flash sync speed can be set to values of 1/200–1/60 s using Custom Setting e1 [Flash sync speed]. When using flash units that support auto FP high-speed sync, choose [1/200 s (Auto FP)] for a full range of shutter speeds.
● Smudges appear in photographs: ･ Are there smudges on the front or rear (mount-side) lens elements? ･ Is there foreign matter on the image sensor? See “Manual cleaning” (0575), or consult a Nikon-authorized service representative. ● Bokeh is irregular: With fast shutter speeds and/or fast lenses, you may notice irregularities in how Bokeh is shaped. The effect can be mitigated by choosing slower shutter speeds and/or higher f-numbers.
･ Randomly-spaced bright pixels, fog, or bright spots may arise as a result of increases in the temperature of the camera’s internal circuits. Turn the camera off when it is not in use. ･ Randomly-spaced bright pixels, fog, lines or unexpected colors may appear if you press the X button to zoom in on the view through the lens during shooting. ･ Note that the distribution of noise in the display may differ from that in the final picture.
● Uneven shading may appear in long exposures: Uneven shading may appear in long exposures shot at shutter speeds of “Bulb” or “Time”. The effect can be mitigated by selecting [On] for [Long exposure NR] in the photo shooting menu. ● The AF-assist illuminator does not light: ･ Is [Off] selected for Custom Setting a11 [Built-in AF-assist illuminator]? ･ The illuminator does not light in video mode.
● Pictures cannot be deleted: ･ Is the memory card write-protected? ･ Are the pictures protected? ● Pictures cannot be retouched: ･ The pictures cannot be further edited with this camera. ･ There is insufficient space on the memory card to record the retouched copy. ● The camera displays the message, [Folder contains no pictures.]: Select [All] for [Playback folder] in the playback menu.

Caring for the camera and battery: Cautions Camera care ● Do not drop Do not drop the camera or lens or subject them to blows. The product may malfunction if subjected to strong shocks or vibration. ● Keep dry Keep the camera dry. Rusting of the internal mechanism caused by water inside the camera can not only be expensive to repair but can in fact cause irreparable damage.
● Lasers and other bright light sources Do not direct lasers or other extremely bright light sources toward the lens, as this could damage the camera’s image sensor. ● Cleaning When cleaning the camera body, use a blower to gently remove dust and lint, then wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth. After using the camera at the beach or seaside, wipe off any sand or salt using a cloth lightly dampened in fresh water and then dry the camera thoroughly.
● Store in a well-ventilated area To prevent mold or mildew, store the camera in a dry, well-ventilated area. Do not store the camera with naphtha or camphor moth balls, next to equipment that produces strong electromagnetic, or where it will be exposed to extremely high temperatures, for example near a heater or in an enclosed vehicle on a hot day. Failure to observe these precautions could result in product malfunction.
injury from broken glass. Be careful that liquid crystal from the monitor does not touch the skin or enter the eyes or mouth. ･ Should you experience any of the following symptoms while framing shots in the viewfinder, discontinue use until your condition improves: - nausea, eye pain, eye fatigue, - dizziness, headache, stiffness in your neck or shoulders, - queasiness or loss of hand-eye coordination, or - motion sickness. ･ The display may rapidly flicker on and off during burst photography.
･ If the battery will not be used for some time, insert it in the camera and run it flat before removing it from the camera for storage. The battery should be stored in a cool, dry location with an ambient temperature of 15 °C to 25 °C (59 °F to 77 °F). Avoid hot or extremely cold locations. ･ Batteries should be charged within six months of use. During long periods of disuse, charge the battery and use the camera to run it flat once every six months before returning it to a cool location for storage.
● Ready spare batteries Before taking photographs, ready a spare battery and keep it fully charged. Depending on your location, it may be difficult to purchase replacement batteries on short notice. ● Have fully-charged spare batteries ready on cold days Partially-charged batteries may not function on cold days. In cold weather, charge one battery before use and keep another in a warm place, ready to be exchanged as necessary. Once warmed, a cold battery may recover some of its charge.
