Electronically Controlled Cameras
In extremely rare instances, unusual characters may appear in the monitor and the
camera may stop functioning. In most cases, this phenomenon is caused by a
strong external static charge. Turn the camera off, remove and replace the battery,
then turn the camera on again. In the event of continued malfunction, contact
your retailer or Nikon-authorized service representative. Note that disconnecting
the power source as described above may result in the loss of any data not
recorded to internal memory or the memory card at the time the problem
occurred. Data already recorded will not be affected.
Shooting
Monitor turns off, and the
power-on lamp and flash lamp
blink rapidly. Battery temperature is high. Turn off camera,
and allow battery to cool down before resuming
use. After the lamps blink for 30 seconds, the
camera will turn off automatically, but you can
also press the power switch to turn it off
manually. 17
