Technical Notes
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.
