• When the monitor is turned with a cable connected to the external microphone
connector or accessory terminal, the monitor may catch on the cable or cover. Do
not apply excessive force to the cable or to the connector of the camera.

Exposure
The procedure for shooting images at the desired brightness (exposure) by
adjusting the shutter speed or aperture value is called “determine exposure”.
The sense of dynamism and amount of background defocus in images to be
shot vary depending on the combinations of shutter speed and aperture value
even if the exposure is the same.
Adjusting the Shutter Speed
In Bmode, the range is from a maximum of 1/4000 to 15 seconds.
In Dmode, the range is from a maximum of 1/4000 to 60 seconds.
Faster 1/1000 s
Slower 1/30 s
Adjusting the Aperture Value
In Cand Dmodes, the range is from f/2 to 8 (wide-angle position) and from
f/4 to 8 (telephoto zoom position).
Larger aperture (Small f-number)
f/2
Smaller aperture (Large f-number)

C Aperture Value (F-number) and Zoom
Large apertures (expressed by small f-numbers) let more light into the camera, and
small apertures (large f-numbers) let less light.
The aperture value of the zoom lens of this camera changes depending on the zoom
position. When zooming to the wide-angle position and telephoto zoom position,
the aperture values are f/2 and f/4, respectively.

• The camera may be unable to detect faces in the following situations:
- When faces are partially hidden by sunglasses or otherwise obstructed
- When faces take up too much or too little of the frame

83
Using Skin Softening
When the shutter is released while using one of the shooting modes listed
below, the camera detects human faces and processes the image to soften
facial skin tones (up to 3 faces).
•
B Notes About Skin Softening
• It may take more time than usual to save images after shooting.
• Under some shooting conditions, the desired skin softening results may not be
achieved, and skin softening may be applied to areas of the image where there are
no faces.
Subjects Not Suitable for Autofocus
The camera may not focus as expected in the following situations. In some rare
cases, the subject may not be in focus despite the fact that the focus area or
focus indicator glows green:
•
Subject is very dark
•
Objects of sharply differing brightness are included in the scene (e.g. the sun
behind the subject makes that subject appear very dark)
No contrast between the subject and surroundings (e.g. a portrait subject
wearing a white shirt is standing in front of a white wall)
Several objects are at different distances from the camera (e.g. the subject is
inside a cage)
Subjects with repeating patterns (window blinds, buildings with multiple
rows of similarly shaped windows, etc.)
Subject is moving rapidly
•
•
•
•
In the situations noted above, try pressing the shutter-release button halfway
to refocus several times, or focus on another subject positioned at the same
distance from the camera as the actual desired subject, and use focus lock

B Maximum Movie Length
Individual movie files cannot exceed 4 GB in size or 29 minutes in length, even when
there is sufficient free space on the memory card for longer recording.
• The maximum movie length for a single movie is displayed on the shooting screen.
• Recording may end before either limit is reached if camera temperature becomes
elevated.
• The actual movie length may vary depending on the movie content, subject
movement, or type of memory card.
B Notes About Saving Images and Recording Movies
The indicator showing the number of exposures remaining or the indicator showing
the maximum movie length flashes while images are being saved or while a movie is
being recorded. Do not open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover or
remove the battery or memory card while an indicator is flashing. Doing this could
result in loss of data, or in damage to the camera or the memory card.
B Notes About Movie Recording
• Memory cards with an SD Speed Class rating of 6 or faster are recommended when
memory card with a lower Speed Class rating is used.
•
The sounds of zoom control operation, zoom, autofocus lens drive movement, vibration
reduction, and aperture operation when brightness changes may be recorded.
• The following phenomena may be seen in the monitor while recording movies.
These phenomena are saved in the recorded movies.
- Banding may occur in images under fluorescent, mercury-vapor, or sodium-vapor
lighting.
- Subjects that move quickly from one side of the frame to the other, such as a
moving train or car, may appear skewed.
- The entire movie image may be skewed when the camera is panned.
- Lighting or other bright areas may leave residual images when the camera is
moved.
• Depending on the distance to the subject or the amount of zoom applied, subjects
with repeating patterns (fabrics, lattice windows, etc.) may have colored stripes
(interference patterns, moire, etc.) in them during movie recording and playback.
This occurs when the pattern in the subject and the layout of the image sensor
interfere with each other; it is not a malfunction.

B Notes About Using Zoom During Movie Recording
• The zoom indicator is not displayed during movie recording.
• There may be some degradation in image quality when digital zoom is used. When
recording movies, digital zoom operates up to approximately 2× the maximum
optical zoom ratio. If you zoom in on the subject while recording a movie, the
zoom motion temporarily stops at the position where optical zoom is changed to
digital zoom.
Aperture-priority auto or Manual, optical zoom cannot be used during movie
recording.
B Camera Temperature
• The camera may become warm when recording movies for an extended period of
time or when the camera is used in a hot area.
• If the inside of the camera becomes extremely hot when recording movies, the
camera will automatically stop recording. The amount of time remaining until the
camera stops recording (B10s) is displayed. After the camera stops recording, it
turns itself off.
Leave the camera off until the inside of the camera has cooled.

Using the filter may enable the shooting of subjects that are too bright without
overexposing the image. It can also be used in situations such as when you want to
slow down the shutter speed at a low aperture value.
For example, at a shutter speed of 1/2000 second with the correct exposure, if the ND
filter is used to reduce the light in three steps, the speed can be changed to 1/250
second without changing the aperture value.

C Notes About i-TTL Flash
• The monitor preflashes are fired to measure the reflecting light from a subject in
order to adjust the flash output of the Speedlight.
- i-TTL-BL flash: The flash output is adjusted with consideration for the balance
between a subject and its background light.
- Standard i-TTL flash: The flash output is adjusted to achieve proper exposure
according to the brightness of the main subject without consideration of the
background light. This setting is optimal for taking images with emphasis on the
main subjects.
• When shooting using i-TTL flash, set the flash control mode of the Speedlight to i-
TTL before taking images (except SB-400).
• When shooting using SB-700 or SB-400 and if Metering of the camera is set to
Matrix or Center-weighted, i-TTL-BL flash is set. If Metering of the camera is set
to Spot, Standard i-TTL flash is set.
C Notes About Speedlights
• This camera does not support Auto FP High-Speed Sync, FV lock, red-eye reduction
or AF-assist for multi-area AF when using Speedlights.
• The power zoom function can be used with Speedlights SB-910, SB-900, SB-800,
SB-700 or SB-600 and the zoom head position is automatically set depending on
the focal length of the lens.
• When using Speedlights SB-910, SB-900, SB-800, SB-700 or SB-600, the edges of
images shot at ranges less than 2 m (6 ft 7 in.) on the wide-angle zoom position
may appear dark. In such cases, use the wide panel.
• When set to STBY (standby), the Speedlight turns on and off at the same time as
the camera. Confirm on the Speedlight that the Ready-light is on.
• Advanced Wireless Lighting shooting can be performed by setting SB-910, SB-900,
SB-800 or SB-700 attached to this camera to master flash, or by setting SU-800 to
the Commander mode, and setting SB-910, SB-900, SB-800, SB-700, SB-600 or
SB-R200 to remote flash (when shooting with this camera, the remote flash setting
is only applicable to Group A).
• Advanced Wireless Lighting shooting can be performed also by using this camera's
bulit-in flash in Commander mode (only applicable to Group A and fixed at 3 CH)
• Refer to the documentation provided with your Speedlight for more information.

E111
B Notes About Using the Remote Flash Unit
• Set up the remote flash unit in a position close to the subject from the camera to
ensure the light from the Speedlight to enter the sensor window.
• Aside from monitor preflashes, the master flash unit emits a minute amount of
flashes to control the remote flash unit. When shooting a subject at a short
distance from the master flash unit, these minute amounts of flashes may cause
adverse effects and the proper exposure may not be achieved. To reduce such
adverse effects, use the wide panel for the master flash when the master flash unit
is directly facing a subject that is being shot at a short distance.

Using the GPS Unit
When the GPS unit (available separately) is attached to the accessory terminal,
signals from GPS satellites are received to determine the current position and
the position information (latitude and longitude) can be recorded on the
images to be shot.
Position information recorded on images can be checked on a map with
How to Attach the GPS Unit
•
•
Turn the camera off before attaching the GPS unit.
Make sure that the plug is inserted in the correct direction. Inserting the
plug in the wrong direction could damage the plug or connector.
To use the built-in flash, do not attach the GPS unit to the accessory shoe.
•
Recording GPS Data on Images
•
Set Power supply of Accessory terminal in the setup menu to On
•
•
Signals are received from GPS satellites and positioning starts.
When you take an image at a place where positioning is successfully
performed, the position information is recorded on the image.
Operate in an open-air area when starting to receive signals from GPS
satellites.
•
•
Be aware of your surroundings when positioning.
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
E113
C GPS Reception Indicator
• n: Signals are being received from four or more satellites and determine position.
Position information is recorded on the image.
• o: Signals are being received from three satellites and determine position.
Position information is recorded on the image.
• z: Signals are no longer received from the satellites. If the camera has position
information that has been obtained in the last 1 minute, this position information is
recorded on the image.
• y: Signals cannot be received from the satellites, and positioning is not possible.
The position information is not recorded on the image.
C Information Recorded on Images
• The shooting date and time that is displayed when playing back images is
determined by the camera’s internal clock at the time of shooting. The time
obtained by the position information and recorded on images will not be
displayed on the camera.
• Position information for the first frame will be recorded on a series of pictures shot
using continuous shooting.
• Position information cannot be displayed on the camera.
• The actual place of shooting may differ from the GPS information recorded on the
image files due to the accuracy of the position information obtained and a
difference in the geodetic system used.
B Notes About Images with Recorded Position Information
An individual may be identified from images that have been recorded with position
information. Observe caution when you transfer images recorded with position
information to a third party or upload them to a network such as the Internet where
the public can view them.

Caring for the Products
The Camera
To ensure continued enjoyment of this Nikon product, observe the precautions
when using or storing the device.
B Do Not Drop
The product may malfunction if subjected to strong shock or vibration.
B Handle the Lens and All Moving Parts with Care
Do not apply force to the lens, lens cover, monitor, memory card slot, or battery
chamber. These parts are easily damaged. Applying force to the lens cover could
result in camera malfunction or damage to the lens. Should the monitor break, care
should be taken to avoid injury caused by broken glass and to prevent the liquid
crystal from the display touching the skin or entering the eyes or mouth.
B Keep Dry
The device will be damaged if immersed in water or subjected to high humidity.
B Avoid Sudden Changes in Temperature
Sudden changes in temperature, such as when entering or leaving a heated building
on a cold day, can cause condensation to form inside the device. To prevent
condensation, place the device in a carrying case or a plastic bag before exposing it
to sudden changes in temperature.
B Keep away from Strong Magnetic Fields
Do not use or store this device in the vicinity of equipment that generates strong
electromagnetic radiation or magnetic fields. Strong static charge or the magnetic
fields produced by equipment such as radio transmitters could interfere with the
monitor, damage data saved on the memory card, or affect the product’s internal
circuitry.
B Do Not Point the Lens at Strong Light Sources for Extended
Periods
Avoid pointing the lens at the sun or other strong light sources for extended periods
when using or storing the camera. Intense light may cause deterioration of the
image sensor, producing a white blur effect in photographs.

F2
B Turn the Product off Before Removing or Disconnecting the Power
Source or the Memory Card
Do not remove the battery while the product is on, or while images are being saved
or deleted. Forcibly cutting power in these circumstances could result in loss of data
or in damage to product memory or internal circuitry.
B Notes About the Monitor
• Monitors and electronic viewfinders are constructed with extremely high precision;
at least 99.99% of pixels are effective, with no more than 0.01% being missing or
defective. Hence while these displays may contain pixels that are always lit (white,
red, blue, or green) or always off (black), this is not a malfunction and has no effect
on images recorded with the device.
• Images in the monitor may be difficult to see under bright lighting.
• The monitor is lit by an LED backlight. Should the monitor begin to dim or flicker,
contact your Nikon-authorized service representative.
The Battery
•
use.
•
Check the battery level before using the camera and replace or charge the
battery if necessary. Do not continue charging once the battery is fully
charged as this will result in reduced battery performance. Whenever
possible, carry a fully charged spare battery when taking images on
important occasions.
•
•
•
•
•

When the battery temperature is between 0°C and 10°C (32°F to 50°F) or
45°C to 60°C (113°F to 140°F), the chargeable capacity may decrease.
The battery is not charged at ambient temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or
above 60°C (140°F).
Note that the battery may become hot during use; wait for the battery to
cool before charging. Failure to observe these precautions could damage
the battery, impair its performance, or prevent it from charging normally.
On cold days, the capacity of batteries tends to decrease. If an exhausted
battery is used at a low temperature, the camera will not turn on. Be sure
that the battery is fully charged before heading outside to take images in
cold weather. Keep spare batteries in a warm place and exchange as
necessary. Once warmed, a cold battery may recover some of its charge.
Dirt on the battery terminals can prevent the camera from functioning.
Should the battery terminals become dirty, wipe them off with a clean, dry
cloth before use.

If the battery will not be used for some time, insert it in the camera and
completely exhaust it before removing it for storage. The battery should be
stored in a cool location with an ambient temperature of 15°C to 25°C (59°F
to 77°F). Do not store the battery in hot or extremely cold locations.
Always remove the battery from the camera or battery charger when it is not
being used. When inserted, minute amounts of current are drawn from the
battery even when not in use. This may result in excessive draining of the
battery and complete loss of function. Turning the camera on or off while
the battery is exhausted can result in reduced battery life.
•
•
•
Recharge the battery at least once every six months and completely exhaust
it before returning it to storage.
After removing the battery from the camera or battery charger, attach the
included terminal cover to the battery and store it in a cool place.
A marked drop in the time a fully-charged battery retains its charge, when
used at room temperature, indicates that the battery needs to be replaced.
Purchase a new EN-EL14 battery.
•
Replace the battery when it no longer holds a charge. Used batteries are a
valuable resource. Please recycle used batteries in accordance with local
regulations.

Caring for the Camera
Cleaning
Avoid touching glass parts with your fingers. Remove dust or lint with
a blower (typically a small device with a rubber bulb attached to one
end that is pumped to produce a stream of air out the other end). To
remove fingerprints or other stains that cannot be removed with a
Lens/
viewfinder blower, wipe the lens with a soft cloth, using a spiral motion that
starts at the center of them and working toward the edges. If this fails,
clean the lens using a cloth lightly dampened with commercial lens
cleaner.
Remove dust or lint with a blower. To remove fingerprints and other
Monitor
stains, clean the monitor with a soft, dry cloth, being careful not to
apply pressure.
Use a blower to remove dust, dirt, or sand, then wipe gently with a
soft, dry cloth. After using the camera at the beach or other sandy or
dusty environment, wipe off any sand, dust, or salt with a dry cloth
lightly dampened with fresh water and dry thoroughly. Note that
foreign matter inside the camera could cause damage not
covered by the warranty.
Body
Do not use volatile organic solvents such as alcohol or thinner, chemical
detergents, anticorrosive agents, or anti-fogging agents.

Storage
Turn the camera off when not in use. Be sure that the power-on lamp is off
before putting the camera away. Remove the battery if the camera will not be
used for an extended period. Do not store the camera with naphtha or
camphor moth balls, or in any of the following locations:
•
Next to equipment that produces strong electromagnetic fields, such as
televisions or radios
•
•
Exposed to temperatures below –10°C (14°F) or above 50°C (122°F)
Places that are poorly ventilated or subject to humidity of over 60%
To prevent mold or mildew, take the camera out of storage at least once a
