4 Cover the viewfinder
After framing the photograph,
remove the viewfinder eyepiece cup
and insert the supplied DK-5
eyepiece cap as shown.
This
prevents light entering via the
viewfinder interfering with exposure.
5 Take the photograph.
Aim the transmitter on the ML-L3 at the infrared
receiver on the camera and press the shutter-release
button on the ML-L3.
In delayed remote mode, the self-
timer lamp will light for about two seconds before the
shutter is released.
In quick-response remote mode, the self-timer lamp will
flash after the shutter has been released.
In AF-A or AF-S is selected in autofocus
modes (pg. 54), the camera will return to stand-by mode without releasing the
shutter if unable to focus.
The camera will release the shutter without focusing
in manual focus mode, if AF-C is selected in autofocus mode, or if the camera has
already been focused using the camera shutter-release button (see step 3).
Remote control mode can be cancelled by selecting another release mode.
Single-
frame or continuous mode will be restored if the camera is turned off or no
operations are about one minute.

Using the Built-in Flash
If the flash is required, the camera will only respond to the shutter-release button on the ML-L3
once the flash has charged.
In i, k, n, and o modes, the flash will begin charging when
delayed remote or quick-response remote mode is selected; once the flash is charged, it will
automatically pop up and fire if required when the shutter-release button on the ML-L3 is
pressed.
In P, S, A, and M modes, raising the flash during the two-second count-down in delayed
remote mode will cancel the two-second timer.
Wait for the flash to charge and then press the
shutter-release button on the ML-L3 to restart the timer.
In flash-sync modes that support red-eye reduction, the red-eye reduction lamp will light for
about one second before the shutter is released.
In delayed remote mode, the self-timer lamp
will light for two seconds, followed by the red-eye reduction lamp, which lights for one second
before the shutter is released to reduce red-eye.
