Technical Notes and Index
Electronically Controlled Cameras
In extremely rare instances, unusual characters may appear on 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. Note that disconnecting the power source as described above may
result in the loss of any data not recorded on the internal memory or memory card at the
time the problem occurred. Data already recorded is not affected. In the event of
continued malfunction, contact your retailer or Nikon-authorized service representative.
