Nikon n65 - Manual (Page 71)

Check points
> Use a tripod or place the camera on a stable surface before using the remote
control.
> When you are taking pictures but not looking through the viewfinder, cover the
eyepiece with the supplied eyepiece cap DK-5 (page 3) or with your hand
before pressing the shutter release button to prevent Interference from stray
light and achieve correct exposure.
• The shooting distance for remote control operation is within 5m (16 ft.) directly
In front of the camera. To shoot beyond the shooting distance of the remote
control, use the self-timer (page 40). Remote control operation cannot be
performed when the camera has extreme backlighting. Change the camera
position in this case.
' If the shutter cannot be released with the remote control, change the battery
inside the remote control unit (page 72). (The life of the battery inside the
remote control unit is approx. 5 years.)
• Use one 3V CR2025 lithium battery in the remote control unit.
