Technical Notes and Index
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 saved
to internal memory or the memory card at the time the problem occurred. Data
already saved will not be affected.
Date and time of
recording are not correct.
• If camera clock has not been set, “Date not set”
indicator blinks with shooting and movie recording.
Images and movies saved before clock is set are
dated “00/00/0000 00:00” or “01/01/2010 00:00”
respectively. Set the correct time and date from the
Date option in the setup menu.
• Check camera clock regularly against more accurate
timepieces and reset as required.
