Mirror Lock-Up

This option is used to lock the mirror in the up position
to allow inspection or cleaning of the low-pass fi lter that
protects the image sensor. See “Technical Notes: Caring
for the Camera” (

185).

This option is not available at battery levels of

or below, while multiple

exposures are being shot, or when the camera is powered by an optional MB-
D200 battery pack using AA batteries. Use a fully-charged EN-EL3e battery or
an optional AC adapter. If the battery runs low while the mirror is raised, a beep
will sound and the AF-assist illuminator will blink to warn you that the mirror will
automatically lower in about two minutes.

Video Mode

Before connecting your camera to a video device such as
a television or VCR (

106), choose a video mode setting

that matches the video standard used in the device.

ing drop in resolution.

World Time

World Time is used to set the camera clock to the current
date and time (

The Clock Battery

The clock-calendar is powered by an independent, rechargeable power source, which is
charged as necessary when the main batteries are installed or the camera is powered by
an optional EH-6 AC adapter. Two days of charging will power the clock for about three
months. If the

icon fl ashes in the control panel, the clock battery is exhausted and

the clock has been reset to a time starting at 2005.01.01.00:00:00. Set the clock to the cor-
rect date and time.
