Restrictions on Wireless Devices
The wireless transceiver included in this product conforms to wireless regulations in the
country of sale and is not for use in other countries (products purchased in the EU or EFTA can
be used anywhere within the EU and EFTA). Nikon does not accept liability for use in other
countries. Users who are unsure as to the original country of sale should consult with their
local Nikon service center or Nikon-authorized service representative. This restriction applies

Notice for Customers in the U.S.A. and Canada
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Industry of Canada (IC)
Declaration of Conformity
This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules and Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS
standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not
cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference
that may cause undesired operation of this device.
FCC/IC RF Exposure Statement
This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with
using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless
devices are absolutely safe. Low power wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency
energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce
health effects (by heating tissue), exposure of low-level RF that does not produce heating
effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have
not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects
might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research.

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 Taking 3D Images
• Moving subjects are not suited to 3D photography.
• Images have a less pronounced 3D feel as the distance between the camera and background is
increased.
• 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 maximum telephoto zoom position is limited to an angle of view equivalent to that of 118.9
mm lens in 35mm [135] format.
• Shooting is canceled after the first shot if the k button is pressed or the subject is not aligned
with the guide within approximately ten seconds.
• If the camera does not take the second image and cancels the shooting even when you align the
guide with the subject, try shooting with 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
as follows:
-
-
HDMI: Auto (default setting) or 1080i
HDMI 3D output: 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 Caution for 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 human faces. If the camera
detects more than one face, a double border is displayed
around the face that the camera will focus on, and single
borders are displayed around the other faces.

In A (auto) mode, the camera selects one or more of the nine focus areas containing
the subject closest to the camera.
When Scene auto selector is selected, the focus area changes depending on which
scene the camera selects.
In Portrait and Night portrait scene modes or in smart portrait mode, the camera will
focus on the area in the center of the frame.
In Pet portrait scene mode, the camera focuses on a pet face if one is detected. If no
pet faces are detected, the camera focuses on the area in the center of the frame.
You may hear the sound of the camera focusing.
B Notes About Face Detection
• The camera’s ability to detect faces depends on a variety of factors, including the direction in
which the faces are looking. 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 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.

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. the subject is inside a cage)
Subjects with repeating patterns (window blinds, buildings with multiple rows of similarly
shaped windows, etc.)

• There is some degradation in image quality when digital zoom is used. When recording ends,
digital zoom turns off.
• 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.

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.

• Depending upon the direction in which faces are looking, or the brightness of faces, the camera
may be unable to accurately recognize faces, or the glamour retouch function may not perform as
expected.
• If no faces are detected in the image, a warning is displayed and the screen returns to the playback
menu.
• The glamour retouch function is available only for images captured when the ISO sensitivity is
1600 or lower.

B Notes About Movie Editing
• Use a sufficiently charged battery to prevent the camera from turning off during editing. When the
battery level display is B, movie editing is not possible.
• A movie that was created by editing cannot be trimmed again. To trim another area of the movie,
select and edit the original movie.
• Movies are trimmed in one-second intervals, therefore the actual trimmed portion of the movie
may differ slightly from the selected start and end points. Movies cannot be trimmed so that they
are less than two seconds long.
• Editing functions are not available when there is not enough free space in the internal memory or
on the memory card to save the edited copies.

White Balance (Adjusting Hue)
Select 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 (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.

The preset manual option is used with mixed lighting or to compensate for light sources with a

look as though they had been shot under white light).

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 for continuous shooting may vary depending upon the current image mode
setting, the memory card used, or shooting condition.
• When Continuous is set to Pre-shooting cache, Continuous H: 120 fps, Continuous H:
60 fps, or 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

B Notes About BSS
BSS is suited for shooting stationary subjects. BSS may not produce the desired results if the subject
moves or the composition changes.

When ISO sensitivity is increased, less light is needed when taking images.
Higher ISO sensitivity allows darker subjects to be captured. Additionally, even with subjects
of similar brightness, images can be taken at faster shutter speeds, and blurring caused by

Maximizing Camera Life and Performance
The Camera
To ensure continued enjoyment of this Nikon product, observe the precautions described
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.
F2
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
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.
B Turn the Product off Before Removing or Disconnecting the Power Source
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
• 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.
• Do not use the battery at ambient temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or above 40°C (104°F).
• Charge the battery indoors with an ambient temperature of 5°C to 35°C (41°F to 95°F) before use.
• When charging the battery inserted into the COOLPIX S5200 using the Charging AC Adapter
EH-70P or a computer, the battery is not charged at battery temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or
above 45°C (113°F).
F3
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
• 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 optional 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 optional battery charger, put the battery in the
included battery case 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-EL19 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.
Charging AC Adapter
• The Charging AC Adapter EH-70P is for use only with compatible devices. Do not use with another
make or model of device.
• The EH-70P is compatible with AC 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz electrical outlets. When using in other
countries, use a plug adapter (commercially available) as necessary. For more information about
plug adapters, consult your travel agency.
F4

• Do not, under any circumstances, use another make or model of AC adapter other than Charging
AC Adapter EH-70P or USB-AC adapter. Failure to observe this precaution could result in
overheating or in damage to the camera.
Memory Cards
memory cards.
• 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.
• The first time you insert a memory card that has been used in another device into this camera, be
sure to format it with this camera. We recommend formatting new memory cards with this camera
before using them with this camera.
• 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 the camera is turned on,
the memory card must be formatted. If there is data on the memory card that you do not want to
delete, select No and press the kbutton. Copy that data to a computer before formatting. To
format the memory card, select Yes.
• 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
battery.
- 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.
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 blower, wipe the lens with a soft cloth, using a spiral

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)
