Disposing of Data Storage Devices  
Please note that deleting images or formatting data storage devices such as memory cards or  
built-in camera memory does not completely erase the original image data. Deleted files can  
sometimes be recovered from discarded storage devices using commercially available software,  
potentially resulting in the malicious use of personal image data. Ensuring the privacy of such data is  
the user’s responsibility.  
Before discarding a data storage device or transferring ownership to another person, erase all data  
using commercial deletion software, or format the device and then completely refill it with images  
containing no private information (for example, pictures of empty sky). Be sure to also replace any  
pictures selected for the Select an image option in the Welcome screen setting (A 98). Care  
should be taken to avoid injury or damage to property when physically destroying data storage  
devices.

B Easy Auto Mode  
Depending upon shooting conditions, the camera may not select the desired scene mode. In this  
case, select another shooting mode (A 37, 46, 48, 51).  
When the digital zoom is in effect, the scene mode changes to U.  
C When Using a Tripod  
We recommend using a tripod to stabilize the camera in the following situations:  
- When shooting in dark conditions with the flash lowered, or when shooting in dark conditions  
using a shooting mode in which the flash does not fire  
- When zooming in on the subject  
Set Vibration reduction to Off in the setup menu (A 98) when using a tripod.  
Using the Zoom  
Rotate the zoom control to activate optical zoom.  
Zoom out  
Zoom in  
To zoom in closer to the subject, rotate the zoom  
control to g (telephoto).  
To zoom out and view a larger area, rotate the zoom  
control to f (wide-angle).  
When you turn the camera on, the zoom moves to the  
maximum wide-angle position.  
The zoom operates quickly when you rotate the zoom  
control fully, and operates slowly when you rotate the  
zoom control partially (except when recording movies).  
A zoom indicator is displayed at the top of the monitor  
when the zoom control is rotated.  
If you rotate the zoom control to g when the camera is  
zoomed in to the maximum optical zoom position, you  
can use the digital zoom to magnify the image by up to 2×.  
Optical zoom Digital zoom  
C Digital Zoom and Interpolation  
When using the digital zoom, image quality deteriorates when zooming  
in past V in the zoom indicator.  
The position of V is more to the right when shooting smaller images;  
therefore, when the image size is smaller (as determined by the image  
mode setting; A 64, E39), more digital zoom can be applied without  
image quality deterioration.

s 3D photography  
The camera captures one image for each eye to simulate a 3D image on a 3D-compatible TV or  
monitor.  
After taking the first picture by pressing the shutter-release  
button, move the camera horizontally to the right so that the  
subject is aligned with the guide on the monitor.  
The camera automatically captures the second image when it  
detects that the subject is aligned with the guide.  
The camera focuses on the area in the center of the frame for  
the first shot.  
Cancel  
The focus, exposure, and white balance are locked after the  
first shot, and R is displayed on the monitor.  
The angle of view (i.e., the area visible in the frame) seen in the  
saved image is narrower than that seen in the monitor at the  
time of shooting.  
Guide  
Images captured in this mode are saved at an image size of n (1920×1080).  
The two captured images are saved as a 3D image (MPO file). The first image (the left eye  
image) is also saved as a JPEG file.  
B Notes About Capturing 3D Images  
Moving subjects are not suited to 3D photography.  
3D images have a less pronounced 3D feel as the distance between the camera and subject is  
increased.  
3D images may have a less pronounced 3D feel when the subject is dark or when the second  
image is not aligned precisely.  
Images captured under dim lighting may appear grainy with noise.  
The telephoto zoom position is limited to the angle of view equivalent to that of up to a 134 mm  
lens in 35mm [135] format.  
If you press the k button after capturing the first image, or if the camera does not detect that the  
subject is aligned with the guide within 10 seconds, shooting is canceled.  
If the camera does not capture the second image and cancels the shooting even when you align  
the guide with the subject, try manual shooting using the shutter-release button.  
Movies cannot be recorded in 3D.

B Playing Back 3D Images  
3D images cannot be played back in 3D on the camera monitor. Only the left eye image of a 3D  
image is displayed during playback.  
To view 3D images in 3D, a 3D-compatible TV or monitor is required. Use a 3D-compatible HDMI  
cable to connect the camera and these devices (A 80) for 3D viewing.  
When connecting the camera using an HDMI cable, set TV settings in the setup menu (A 99) as  
follows:  
-
-
HDMI: Set to Auto (default setting) or 1080i.  
HDMI 3D output: Set to On (default setting).  
When the camera is connected via HDMI and images are played back, it may take a while to  
display images when switching between 3D images and non-3D images. Playback zoom is not  
possible while images are played back in 3D.  
Refer to the documentation included with the TV or monitor for details on how to make the  
settings.  
B Notes About Viewing 3D Images  
When viewing 3D images on a 3D-compatible TV or monitor for an extended period of time, you  
may experience discomfort such as eye strain or nausea. Carefully read the documentation included  
with your TV or monitor to ensure proper use.

Focusing  
This camera uses autofocus to focus automatically when shooting. The focus area varies  
depending on the shooting mode. Here, we will explain how to use focus areas and focus  
lock.  
Using Face Detection  
In the following shooting modes, the camera uses face  
detection to automatically focus on people’s faces.  
If the camera detects more than one face, a double border is  
displayed around the face that the camera focuses on, and  
single borders are displayed around the other faces.

B Notes About Face Detection  
The camera’s ability to detect faces depends on a variety of factors, including whether or not the  
subject is facing the camera. Additionally, 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  
When the frame includes more than one person’s face, the faces detected by the camera and the  
face on which the camera focuses depend upon a variety of factors, including the direction in  
which the faces are looking.  
In some rare cases, such as those described in “Subjects Not Suitable for Autofocus” (A 72), the  
subject may not be in focus even though the double border turns green. Should this occur, use  
another mode, such as A (auto) mode, and try focus lock shooting (A 71) by focusing on  
another subject that is the same distance from the camera.

Target Finding AF  
When AF area mode (A 64) in A (auto) mode is set to Target finding AF, the camera  
adjusts the focus during the following operations if you press the shutter-release button  
halfway:  
When the camera detects the main subject, it focuses on  
that subject.  
When the subject is in focus, the focus area matches the  
size of the subject and glows in green.  
When the camera detects a person’s face, the camera  
focuses on it as a priority (face detection).  
1 / 2 5 0 F 3.3  
Focus area  
The camera has nine focus areas, and if it does not detect  
the main subject, it automatically selects the focus area  
containing the subject closest to the camera.  
When the subject is in focus, the focus area that is in focus  
lights in green.

B Notes About Target Finding AF  
The subject that is detected as the main subject depends on the shooting conditions.  
When White balance is set to any setting other than Auto, the camera does not detect the main  
subject.  
The camera may not detect the main subject properly in the following situations:  
- When the area displayed in the monitor is very dark or very bright  
- When the main subject has no particular color  
- When the main subject is located on one of the edges of the area displayed in the monitor  
- When the main subject contains a repeating pattern

Focus Lock  
When the camera focuses on an object in the center of the frame, you can use focus lock to  
focus on an off-center subject.  
The following procedure describes how to use focus lock when using A (auto) mode with  
AF area mode (A 64) set to Center.

Aim the camera at the subject so that the subject is in the center of the  
frame.

B 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 the 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. an animal 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 select A (auto) mode and use focus lock (A 71) to take the picture by first focusing on an  
object that is the same distance from the camera as the desired subject.

B Notes About Saving Data  
After taking pictures or recording a movie, the number of exposures remaining or the remaining  
recording time flashes while images or movies are being saved. Do not open the battery-  
chamber/memory card slot cover. Image and movie data could be lost and the camera or memory  
card could be damaged.  
B Notes About Movie Recording  
Memory cards with an SD Speed Class rating of 6 or faster are recommended when recording  
movies (F21). Movie recording may stop unexpectedly when memory cards with a lower Speed  
Class rating are used.  
The optical zoom magnification ratio cannot be changed once recording starts.  
Use the zoom control to operate digital zoom while recording movies. The zoom range is  
between the optical zoom magnification ratio before recording a movie and up to 2×.  
Image quality degrades when digital zoom is used. When recording ends, digital zoom turns off.  
The sounds of zoom control operation, 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.  
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 too hot when recording  
movies, the camera may automatically stop recording after 10  
seconds in order to prevent damage to the camera.  
The amount of time remaining until the camera stops recording  
(B10 s) is displayed.  
Five seconds after the camera stops recording, it turns itself off.  
Leave the camera off until the inside of the camera has cooled.

B Notes About Autofocus  
Autofocus may not perform as expected (A 72). Should this occur, try the following:  
1. Set Autofocus mode in the movie menu to A Single AF (default setting) before starting  
movie recording (A 93, E68).  
2. Frame another subject—positioned at the same distance from the camera as the intended  
subject—in the center of the frame, press the b (e movie-record) button to start recording, and  
then modify the composition.

All figures are approximate. The maximum recording time may vary depending on the make of the  
memory card, even among memory cards of the same capacity.  
To confirm the maximum length of a movie that can be recorded in the internal memory (approx.  
28 MB), remove the memory card from the camera, and then check the maximum recording time  
displayed in the monitor when shooting.  
* The maximum size for a single movie is 4 GB, and the maximum recording time for a single movie  
is 29 minutes, even when there is sufficient free space on the memory card. If the camera becomes  
hot, movie recording may stop before these limits are reached.  
C Functions Available with Movie Recording  
The exposure compensation, white balance, and color options settings for the current shooting  
mode are also applied with movie recording. The tone that results from using scene mode (A 37)  
or special effects mode (A 46) is also applied to movies. When macro mode is enabled, movies of  
subjects closer to the camera can be recorded. Confirm settings before starting movie recording.  
The self-timer (A 56) can be used. Set the self-timer and then press the b (e movie-record)  
button to start recording a movie after 10 seconds.  
The flash does not fire.

B Notes About Easy Panorama Shooting  
The range of the image seen in the saved image is narrower than that seen in the monitor at the  
time of shooting.  
If the camera is moved too quickly or shaken too much, or if the subject is too uniform (e.g. walls or  
darkness), an error may occur.  
If shooting is stopped before the camera reaches the half-way point in the panorama range, a  
panorama image is not saved.  
If more than half of the panorama range is captured but shooting ends before reaching the edge  
of the range, the range not captured is recorded and displayed in gray.

pause movie playback, switch between full-screen playback mode and 4-image thumbnail playback  
mode, etc.  
Set the HDMI device control setting (E84) of TV settings to On (default setting) and then  
connect the camera and TV using an HDMI cable.

C Number of Images That Can Be Saved  
The following table lists the approximate number of images that can be saved on a 4 GB memory  
card. Note that due to JPEG compression, the number of images that can be saved varies greatly  
depending on the composition of the image. In addition, this number varies depending on the  
make of the memory card, even when the memory cards have the same specified capacity.  
To confirm the number of images that can be saved in the internal memory (approx. 28 MB), remove  
the memory card from the camera, and then check the number of remaining exposures displayed in  
the monitor when shooting.

Print sizes are calculated by dividing the number of pixels by printer resolution (dpi) and  
multiplying by 2.54 cm (1 in.). However, at the same image size, images printed at higher  
resolutions will be printed smaller than the size indicated, and those printed at lower resolutions  
will be printed larger than the size indicated.

White Balance (Adjusting Hue)  
Enter A (auto) mode M d button M White balance M k button  
The color of light reflected from an object varies with the color of the light source. The human  
brain is able to adapt to changes in the color of the light source, with the result that white  
objects appear white whether seen in the shade, direct sunlight, or under incandescent  
lighting. Digital cameras can mimic this adjustment by processing images according to the  
color of the light source. This is known as “white balance.” For natural colors, select a white  
balance setting that matches the light source before shooting.  
Although Auto (the default setting) can be used under most types of lighting, white balance  
can be adjusted to suit the sky conditions or light source and achieve more natural color  
tones in the image.

Using Preset Manual  
Preset manual is used with mixed lighting or to compensate for light sources with a strong  
color cast when the desired effect has not been achieved with white balance settings like  
Auto and Incandescent (for example, to make images shot under a lamp with a red shade  
look as though they had been shot under white light).  
Use the procedure below to measure the white balance value under the lighting used when  
shooting.

Continuous Shooting  
Enter A (auto) mode M d button M Continuous M k button  
You can change settings to continuous or BSS (best shot selector).  
Option  
U Single  
(default setting)  
Description  
One picture is taken each time the shutter-release button is pressed.  
While the shutter-release button is held all the way down, about 4 images  
are captured continuously at a rate of about 1.9 fps (when Image mode is  
set to P 4608×3456). Shooting ends when the shutter-release button is  
released.  
C Continuous  
The “best shot selector” is recommended when shooting with the flash off  
or the camera zoomed in, or in other situations in which inadvertent  
motion can result in blurred images.  
When BSS is on, the camera captures up to 10 images while the shutter-  
release button is held down. The sharpest image in the series is  
automatically selected and saved.  
D BSS  
(best shot selector)  
BSS is best suited to shooting subjects that are not moving. When  
shooting moving subjects or when the composition of the picture  
changes while shooting, the desired results may not be achieved.  
Each time the shutter-release button is pressed all  
the way down, the camera takes 16 shots at a rate  
of about 30 fps and arranges them in a single  
image.  
W Multi-shot 16  
Images are captured with the Image mode fixed  
at L (image size is 2560 × 1920 pixels).  
Digital zoom cannot be used.  
The icon for the current setting is displayed in the monitor when the camera is in shooting  
mode (A 8). No icon is displayed when Single is selected.

B Notes About Continuous Shooting  
When a setting other than Single is selected, flash cannot be used. Focus, exposure, and white  
balance are fixed at the values determined with the first image in each series.  
It may take some time to save the images after shooting. The amount of time it takes to finish  
saving the images depends on the number of images, image mode, the write speed of the  
memory card, etc.  
When ISO sensitivity increases, noise may appear in captured images.  
The frame rate with continuous shooting may vary depending upon the current image mode  
setting, the memory card used, or shooting condition.  
When Continuous is set to Multi-shot 16, banding or variance in brightness or hue may occur in  
images that were captured under lighting that flickers at high speeds, such as fluorescent,  
mercury-vapor, or sodium-vapor lighting.  
Some settings cannot be used with other functions (A 65).  
C Images Captured Using “Continuous”  
Each series of images captured is saved as a “sequence” (E14).

ISO Sensitivity  
Enter A (auto) mode M d button M ISO sensitivity M k button  
When ISO sensitivity is increased, less light is needed when taking pictures.  
Higher ISO sensitivity allows darker subjects to be captured. Additionally, even with subjects  
of similar brightness, pictures can be taken at faster shutter speeds, and blurring caused by  
camera shake and subject movement can be reduced.  
Although higher ISO sensitivity is effective when shooting darker subjects, shooting  
without the flash, shooting while using the zoom, etc., images may contain noise.

Selecting Reset all also resets the camera’s file numbering (E93). After a reset, the  
camera determines the largest file number in the internal memory or on the memory card  
and saves images using the next available file number. To reset file numbering to “0001”,  
delete all images saved in the internal memory or on the memory card (A32) before  
selecting Reset all.

Files are saved in folders named with a folder number followed by “NIKON” (e.g.  
“100NIKON”). A single folder can hold up to 200 images; if the current folder already  
contains 200 images, a new folder, named by adding one to the current folder name, is  
created the next time an image is captured (e.g. “100NIKON” “101NIKON”). When the  
number of files within a folder reaches 9999, a new folder is created. File numbers are  
assigned automatically starting with “0001”.  
Voice memo file names have the same identifier and file number as the image to which  
the voice memo is attached.

are assigned new file numbers in ascending order starting from the largest file number in  
memory. Copy > All images copies all folders from the source medium; file names do not  
change but new folder numbers are assigned in ascending order, starting from the largest  
folder number on the destination medium (E61).  
If the current folder is numbered 999 and contains 200 images, or an image is numbered  
9999, no further images can be captured until the internal memory or memory card is  
formatted (E82), or a new memory card is inserted.

Caring for the Product  
The Camera  
To ensure safe and continued enjoyment of your Nikon camera, observe the following  
precautions and the precautions noted in “For Your Safety” (Avii-xii) when using or storing  
your camera.  
B Do Not Subject the Product to Strong Shocks  
The product may malfunction if dropped or struck. Additionally, do not touch or apply force to the  
lens or lens cover.  
B Keep Dry  
If water enters the camera, internal components may rust or otherwise become damaged, and  
repairing the camera may be expensive or even impossible.  
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 damage the image sensor or other components, producing a  
white blur effect in photographs.  
F2  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
   
B Turn the Camera off Before Removing the Batteries, AC Adapter, or Memory Card  
Removing the batteries, AC adapter, or memory card while the camera is on could damage the  
camera or memory card. If removed while the camera is saving or deleting data, data may be lost  
and the camera's memory or the memory card may be damaged.  
B Notes on 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.  
Scraping or pressing on the surface of the monitor may result in damage or malfunction. 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.  
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.  
Batteries  
Be sure to read and follow the warnings noted in “For Your Safety” (Avii-xii) before use.  
B Notes About Using Batteries  
Used batteries may overheat. Handle with caution.  
Do not use batteries beyond their recommended expiration date.  
Do not turn the camera on and off repeatedly if discharged batteries are inserted in the camera.  
B Spare Batteries  
We recommend carrying spare batteries depending on where you are shooting. It may be difficult to  
purchase batteries in certain areas.  
B Charging Batteries  
If using optional rechargeable batteries, charge the batteries before taking pictures. Batteries are not  
charged at the time of purchase.  
Be sure to read and follow the warnings noted in the operating instructions included with the  
battery charger.  
F3  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
   
B Charging Rechargeable Batteries  
Do not mix batteries with different amounts of charge remaining, or batteries of a different make  
or model.  
When using EN-MH2 batteries with the COOLPIX L610, charge two batteries at a time using Battery  
Charger MH-72. When using Battery Charger MH-73, charge two or four batteries at a time. Use  
only Battery Charger MH-72 or MH-73 to charge EN-MH2 batteries.  
When using Battery Charger MH-72 or MH-73, only charge EN-MH2 batteries.  
B Notes About EN-MH1 Rechargeable Batteries and Battery Charger MH-70/71  
You can also use EN-MH1 Ni-MH rechargeable batteries with this camera.  
Use only Battery Charger MH-70 or MH-71 to charge EN-MH1 batteries.  
When using Battery Charger MH-70 or MH-71, only charge EN-MH1 batteries.  
Set Battery type (A99, E92) to COOLPIX (Ni-MH).  
B Notes About Rechargeable Ni-MH Batteries  
If you repeatedly charge rechargeable Ni-MH batteries while they still have some charge  
remaining, the message Battery exhausted. may be displayed prematurely when using the  
batteries. This is due to the “memory effect,” in which the amount of charge the batteries can hold  
decreases temporarily. Use the batteries until there is no charge remaining and they will return to  
their normal behavior.  
Rechargeable Ni-MH batteries discharge even when not being used. We recommend charging the  
batteries just before using them.  
B Cold Environment Usage  
Battery performance decreases in cold environments. When using the camera in cold environments,  
try not to let the camera and batteries become too cold. The camera may not function if you use  
discharged batteries in cold environments. Keep spare batteries warm and alternate between two  
sets of batteries. Batteries that cannot be used because they have become too cold can often be  
used again when they have been warmed up.  
B Battery Terminals  
Dirt on the battery terminals can prevent the camera from functioning. Remove dirt from the  
terminals using a dry cloth.  
F4  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
   
B Remaining Battery Charge  
If you insert discharged batteries into the camera, the camera may indicate that the batteries have  
adequate charge remaining. This is a characteristic of batteries.  
B Recycling  
Used batteries are a valuable resource. Please recycle used batteries in accordance with local  
regulations. Cover the battery terminals with plastic tape when recycling.  
Memory Cards  
Use only Secure Digital memory cards. Approved memory cards F21  
Observe the precautions noted in the documentation included with your memory card.  
Do not affix labels or stickers to the memory card.  
Do not format the memory card using a computer.  
Before using a memory card with this camera, format the card using this camera if the card has  
been used with another device. Before using a new memory card, we recommend using this  
camera to format the card.  
Note that formatting a memory card permanently deletes all images and other data on the  
memory card. If there is data saved on the memory card that you wish to keep, copy that data to  
a computer before formatting.  
If the message Card is not formatted. Format card? is displayed when you insert a memory  
card, the memory card must be formatted. If there is data on the memory card that you do not  
want to delete, select No. Copy that data to a computer before formatting. To format the memory  
card, select Yes and then press the kbutton.  
Observe the following precautions while formatting the memory card, saving and deleting  
images, and copying images to a computer, otherwise data or the memory card itself may be  
damaged.  
- Do not open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover or remove the memory card or  
batteries.  
- Do not turn off the camera  
- Do not disconnect the AC adapter

Cleaning and Storage  
Cleaning  
Do not use alcohol, thinner, or other volatile chemicals.  
When cleaning the lens, avoid touching it directly with your fingers. Remove dust or  
lint with a blower. To remove fingerprints, oil, or other grime that cannot be removed  
with a blower, wipe the lens with a soft, dry cloth or an eyeglass cleaning cloth, using  
a gentle spiral motion that starts in the center and moves toward the edges. Do not  
wipe forcefully or wipe with a rough cloth, otherwise the camera may be damaged  
or malfunction. If you still cannot remove the grime, wet a soft cloth with a  
commercial liquid lens cleaner and gently wipe off the grime.
