The following can reduce battery life:
•Using the monitor
• Keeping the shutter-release button pressed halfway
• Repeated autofocus operations
• Taking NEF (RAW) or TIFF (RGB) photographs
• Slow shutter speeds
• Using the optional WT-4 wireless transmitter
• Using the optional GP-1 GPS unit
• Using VR (vibration reduction) mode with VR lenses
To ensure that you get the most from rechargeable Nikon EN-EL4a
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.
• Check the condition of the battery regularly using the Battery
info option in the setup menu (0 333). If j is displayed for
Calibration, calibrate the battery using the MH-22 quick charger
(if the battery has not been used for more than six months,
recharge the battery when calibration is complete).
