Battery Life

The number of shots that can be taken with fully-charged batteries varies with the

condition of the battery, temperature, and how the camera is used. In the case of AA

batteries, capacity also varies with make and storage conditions; some batteries can
not be used. Sample figures for the camera and optional MB-Dl 1 multi-power
battery pack are given below.

• Cl PA standard^

1 Measured at 23 °C/73.4 °F (±2 °C/3.6 °F) with an AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G

ED VR lens under the following test conditions: lens cycled from infinity to minimum
range and one photograph taken at default settings once every 30 s; flash fired once

every other shot. Live view not used.

2 Measured at 20 °C/68 °F with an AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II lens under the

following test conditions: image quality set to JPEG basic, image size set to M (medium),

shutter speed

V250

s, shutter-release button pressed halfway for three seconds and focus

cycled from infinity to minimum range three times; six shots are then taken in succession

and monitor turned on for five seconds and then turned off; cycle repeated once

exposure meters have turned off.

The following can reduce battery life:

• Using the monitor
• Keeping the shutter-release button pressed halfway
• Repeated autofocus operations
• Taking NEF (RAW) photographs
• Slow shutter speeds
• Using the optional WT-4 wireless transmitter
• Using a GP-1 GPS unit
• Using VR (vibration reduction) mode with VR lenses

To ensure that you get the most from rechargeable Nikon EN-EL15 batteries:

• Keep the battery contacts clean. Soiled contacts can reduce battery performance.
• Use batteries immediately after charging. Batteries will lose their charge if left

unused.
