Notice for Customers in the U.S.A. and Canada

Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Industry of Canada

(IC)

Declaration of Conformity

This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules and Industry Canada licenceexempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

(1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of this device.

FCC/IC RF Exposure Statement

This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure of low-level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research.

Preparing for Shooting

Insert the Battery and Memory Card

Batter y latch Me m or y card slot

With the battery’s positive and negative terminals oriented correctly, move the orange battery latch (

3

), and fully insert the battery (

4

).

Slide the memory card in until it clicks into place (

5

).

Be careful not to insert the battery or memory card upside-down or backward, as this could cause a malfunction.

B

Formatting a Memory Card

The first time you insert a memory card that has been used in another device into this camera, make sure to format it with this camera. Insert the memory card into the camera, press the d

button, and select

Format card

in the setup menu (

A

76).

Removing the Battery or Memory Card

Turn the camera off and make sure that the power-on lamp and monitor have turned off, and then open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover.

Move the battery latch to eject the battery.

Gently push the memory card into the camera to partially eject the memory card.

Be careful when handling the camera, battery, and memory card immediately after using the camera, as they may become hot .

Memory Cards and Internal Memory

Camera data, including images and movies, can be saved either on a memory card or in the camera’s internal memory. To use the camera’s internal memory, remove the memory card.

7

Charge the Battery

1

With the batter

y

installed, connect the ca

m

era to an electrical outlet.

Charging AC Adapter

Electrical outlet

8

USB cable (included)

Charge la m p

If a plug adapter* is included with your camera, securely connect it to the

Charging AC Adapter. Once the two are connected, attempting to forcibly remove the plug adapter could damage the product.

* The shape of the plug adapter varies according to the country or region in which the camera was purchased. This step can be omitted if the plug adapter comes permanently bonded to the Charging AC Adapter.

The charge lamp slowly flashes green to indicate that the battery is charging.

When charging is complete, the charge lamp turns off. It takes about 1 hour and 50 minutes to charge a fully exhausted battery.

The battery cannot be charged when the charge lamp quickly flashes green, possibly due to one of the reasons described below.

- The ambient temperature is not suited to charging.

- The USB cable or Charging AC Adapter is not properly connected.

- The battery is damaged.

2

Disconnect the Charging AC Adapter fro

m

the electrical outlet and then disconnect the USB cable.

B

Notes About the USB Cable

Do not use a USB cable other than the UC-E21. Using a USB cable other than the

UC-E21 could result in overheating, fire or electric shock.

Make sure that the plugs are properly oriented. Do not insert or remove the plugs at an angle when connecting or disconnecting them.

B

Notes About Charging the Battery

The camera can be operated while the battery is charging, but the charging time increases.

If the battery level is extremely low, you may not be able to operate the camera while the battery is charging.

Do not, under any circumstances, use another make or model of AC adapter other than the EH-71P/EH-71PCH/EH-73P/EH-73PCH Charging AC Adapter, and do not use a commercially available USB-AC adapter or a battery charger for a mobile phone. Failure to observe this precaution could result in overheating or in damage to the camera.

C

Charging Using a Computer or Battery Charger

You can also charge the battery by connecting the camera to a computer.

You can use the MH-66 Battery Charger (available separately) to charge the battery without using the camera.

Focusing

The focus area varies depending on the shooting mode.

Using Target Finding AF

When

AF area mode

(

A

85) in

A

(auto) mode is set to

Target finding AF

, the camera focuses in the manner described below when you press the shutter-release button halfway.

The camera detects the main subject and focuses on it. When the subject is in focus, the focus area is displayed in green. If a human face is detected, the camera automatically sets focus priority on it.

Focus areas

If no main subject is detected, the camera automatically selects one or more of the 9 focus areas containing the subject closest to the camera. When the subject is in focus, the focus areas that are in focus are displayed in green.

Focus areas

B

Notes About Target Finding AF

Depending on shooting conditions, the subject that the camera determines to be the main subject may vary.

The main subject may not be detected when using certain

White balance

settings.

The camera may not detect the main subject appropriately in the following situations:

- When the subject is very dark or bright

- When the main subject lacks clearly defined colors

- When the shot is framed so that the main subject is at the edge of the monitor

- When the main subject is composed of a repeating pattern

Using Face Detection

In the following shooting modes, the camera uses face detection to automatically focus on human faces.

If the camera detects more than one face, a double border is displayed around the face that the camera focuses on, and single borders are displayed around the other faces.

If the shutter button is pressed halfway when no faces are detected:

In x

(scene auto selector) mode, the focus area changes depending on the scene.

In

Portrait

and

Night portrait

scene modes or in smart portrait mode, the camera focuses in the center of the frame.

In

A

(auto) mode, the camera selects the focus area containing the subject closest to the camera.

B

Notes About Face Detection

The camera’s ability to detect faces depends on a variety of factors, including the direction in which the faces are looking.

The camera cannot detect faces in the following situations:

- When faces are partially hidden by sunglasses or otherwise obstructed

- When faces take up too much or too little of the frame

53

54

Using Skin Softening

When the shutter is released while using one of the shooting modes listed below, the camera detects human faces and processes the image to soften facial skin tones (up to 3 faces).

Smart portrait mode (

A

- The skin softening level can be adjusted by the glamour retouch function.

B

Notes About Skin Softening

It may take more time than usual to save images after shooting.

Under some shooting conditions, the desired skin softening results may not be achieved, and skin softening may be applied to areas of the image where there are no faces.

Subjects Not Suitable for Autofocus

The camera may not focus as expected in the following situations. In rare cases, the subject may not be in focus despite the fact that the focus area or the focus indicator is displayed in green:

Subject is very dark

Objects of sharply differing brightness are included in the scene (e.g. the sun behind the subject makes that subject appear very dark)

No contrast between the subject and surroundings (e.g. a portrait subject wearing a white shirt is standing in front of a white wall)

Several objects are at different distances from the camera (e.g. the subject is inside a cage)

Subjects with repeating patterns (window blinds, buildings with multiple rows of similarly shaped windows, etc.)

Subject is moving rapidly

In the situations noted above, try pressing the shutter-release button halfway to refocus several times, or focus on another subject positioned at the same distance from the camera as the actual desired subject, and use focus lock

(

A

55).

Focus Lock

Focus lock shooting is recommended when the camera does not activate the focus area that contains the desired subject.

settings in the movie menu.

If

Photo info

in

Monitor settings

(

Maximum Movie Recording Time

Individual movie files cannot exceed 4 GB in size or 29 minutes in length, even when there is sufficient free space on the memory card for longer recording.

The remaining recording time for a single movie is displayed on the shooting screen.

The actual remaining recording time may vary depending on the movie content, subject movement, or type of memory card.

Memory cards with an SD Speed Class rating of 6 or faster are recommended when recording movies (

A

153). Movie recording may stop

unexpectedly when memory cards with a lower Speed Class rating are used.

When using the camera’s internal memory, saving movies may take some time.

Depending on the file size of a movie, it may not be possible to save the movie in the internal memory or copy it from a memory card to the internal memory.

B

Notes About Camera Temperature

The camera may become hot when shooting movies for an extended period of time or when the camera is used in a hot area.

If the inside of the camera becomes extremely hot when recording movies, the camera will automatically stop recording.

The amount of time remaining until the camera stops recording (

B

After the camera stops recording, it turns itself off.

Leave the camera off until the inside of the camera has cooled.

Notes About Movie Recording

B

Notes About Saving Images or Movies

The indicator showing the number of exposures remaining or the indicator showing the remaining recording time flashes while images or movies are being saved.

Do not open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover or remove the battery or memory card

while an indicator is flashing. Doing this could result in loss of data, or in damage to the camera or the memory card.

B

Notes About Recorded Movies

There may be some degradation in image quality when digital zoom is used.

The sounds of zoom control operation, zoom, autofocus lens drive movement, movie vibration reduction, and aperture operation when brightness changes may be recorded.

The following phenomena may be seen in the monitor while recording movies.

These phenomena are saved in the recorded movies.

- Banding may occur in images under fluorescent, mercury-vapor, or sodiumvapor lighting.

- Subjects that move quickly from one side of the frame to the other, such as a moving train or car, may appear skewed.

- The entire movie image may be skewed when the camera is panned.

- Lighting or other bright areas may leave residual images when the camera is moved.

Depending on the distance to the subject or the amount of zoom applied, colored stripes may appear on subjects with repeating patterns (fabrics, lattice windows, etc.) during movie recording and playback. This occurs when the pattern in the subject and the layout of the image sensor interfere with each other; it is not a malfunction.

B

Notes About Vibration Reduction During Movie Recording

When

Movie VR

(

A

102) in the movie menu is set to

On (hybrid)

, the angle of view (i.e., the area visible in the frame) becomes narrower during movie recording.

When using a tripod to stabilize the camera during shooting, set

Movie VR

to

Off

to prevent potential errors caused by this function.

B

Notes About Autofocus for Movie Recording

Autofocus may not perform as expected (

A

54). Should this occur, try the following:

1. Set

Autofocus mode

in the movie menu to

Single AF

(default setting) before starting movie recording.

2. Frame another subject (positioned at the same distance from the camera as the intended subject) in the center of the frame, press the b

( e

) button to start recording, and modify the composition.

Caring for the Product

Observe the precautions described below in addition to the warnings in “For

Your Safety” (

A

vi–viii) when using or storing the device.

The Camera

Do Not Apply Strong Impact to the Camera

The product may malfunction if subjected to strong shock or vibration. In addition, do not touch or apply force to the lens or lens cover.

Keep Dry

The device will be damaged if immersed in water or subjected to high humidity.

Avoid Sudden Changes in Temperature

Sudden changes in temperature, such as when entering or leaving a heated building on a cold day, can cause condensation to form inside the device. To prevent condensation, place the device in a carrying case or a plastic bag before exposing it to sudden changes in temperature.

Keep Away from Strong Magnetic Fields

Do not use or store this device in the vicinity of equipment that generates strong electromagnetic radiation or magnetic fields. Doing so could result in loss of data or camera malfunction.

Do Not Point the Lens at Strong Light Sources for Extended Periods

Avoid pointing the lens at the sun or other strong light sources for extended periods when using or storing the camera. Intense light may cause the image sensor to deteriorate or produce a white blur effect in photographs.

Turn the Product Off Before Removing or Disconnecting the Power

Source or Memory Card

Do not remove the battery while the product is on, or while images are being saved or deleted. Forcibly cutting power in these circumstances could result in loss of data or in damage to product memory or internal circuitry.

131

132

Notes About the Monitor

Monitors and electronic viewfinders are constructed with extremely high precision; at least 99.99% of pixels are effective, with no more than 0.01% being missing or defective. Hence while these displays may contain pixels that are always lit (white, red, blue, or green) or always off (black), this is not a malfunction and has no effect on images recorded with the device.

Images in the monitor may be difficult to see under bright lighting.

Do not apply pressure to the monitor, as this could cause damage or malfunction.

Should the monitor break, care should be taken to avoid injury caused by broken glass and to prevent the liquid crystal from the display touching the skin or entering the eyes or mouth.

The Battery

Precautions for Use

Note that the battery may become hot after use.

Do not use the battery at ambient temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or above 40°C

(104°F) as this could cause damage or malfunction.

If you notice any abnormalities such as excessive heat, smoke, or an unusual smell coming from the battery, immediately discontinue use and consult your retailer or

Nikon-authorized service representative.

After removing the battery from the camera or optional battery charger, put the battery in a plastic bag, etc. in order to insulate it.

Charging the Battery

Check the battery level before using the camera and replace or charge the battery if necessary.

Charge the battery indoors with an ambient temperature of 5°C to 35°C (41°F to

95°F) before use.

A high battery temperature may prevent the battery from charging properly or completely, and may reduce battery performance. Note that the battery may become hot after use; wait for the battery to cool before charging.

When charging the battery inserted into this camera using the Charging AC

Adapter or a computer, the battery is not charged at battery temperatures below

0°C (32°F) or above 50°C (122°F).

Do not continue charging once the battery is fully charged as this will result in reduced battery performance.

The battery temperature may increase during charging. However, this is not a malfunction.

Carrying Spare Batteries

Whenever possible, carry fully charged spare batteries when taking pictures on important occasions.

Using the Battery When Cold

On cold days, the capacity of batteries tends to decrease. If an exhausted battery is used at a low temperature, the camera may not turn on. Keep spare batteries in a warm place and exchange as necessary. Once warmed, a cold battery may recover some of its charge.

Battery Terminals

Dirt on the battery terminals may prevent the camera from functioning. Should the battery terminals become dirty, wipe them off with a clean, dry cloth before use.

Charging an Exhausted Battery

Turning the camera on or off while an exhausted battery is inserted in the camera may result in reduced battery life. Charge the exhausted battery before use.

Storing the Battery

Always remove the battery from the camera or optional battery charger when it is not being used. Minute amounts of current are drawn from the battery while it is in the camera, even when not in use. This may result in excessive battery drain and complete loss of function.

Recharge the battery at least once every six months and completely exhaust it before returning it to storage.

Put the battery in a plastic bag, etc. in order to insulate it and store it in a cool place.

The battery should be stored in a dry location with an ambient temperature of 15°C to 25°C (59°F to 77°F). Do not store the battery in hot or extremely cold locations.

Battery Life

A marked drop in the time a fully charged battery retains its charge, when used at room temperature, indicates that the battery needs to be replaced. Purchase a new battery.

Recycling Used Batteries

Replace the battery when it no longer holds a charge. Used batteries are a valuable resource. Please recycle used batteries in accordance with local regulations.

The Charging AC Adapter

The EH-71P/EH-71PCH/EH-73P/EH-73PCH Charging AC Adapter is for use only with compatible devices. Do not use with another make or model of device.

Do not use any USB cable other than the UC-E21. Using a USB cable other than the

UC-E21 could result in overheating, fire or electric shock.

Do not, under any circumstances, use another make or model of AC adapter other than the EH-71P/EH-71PCH/EH-73P/EH-73PCH Charging AC Adapter, and do not use a commercially available USB-AC adapter or a battery charger for a mobile phone. Failure to observe this precaution could result in overheating or in damage to the camera.

The EH-71P/EH-71PCH/EH-73P/EH-73PCH is compatible with AC 100–240 V, 50/60

Hz electrical outlets. When using in other countries, use a plug adapter

(commercially available) as necessary. For more information about plug adapters, consult your travel agency.

Memory Cards

Precautions for Use

Use only Secure Digital memory cards. See “Approved Memory Cards” (

A

153) for

recommended memory cards.

Be sure to follow the precautions described in the documentation included with the memory card.

Do not put labels or stickers on memory cards.

Formatting

Do not format the memory card using a computer.

The first time you insert a memory card that has been used in another device into this camera, be sure to format it with this camera. We recommend formatting new memory cards with this camera before using them with this camera.

Note that formatting a memory card permanently deletes all images and other data on the memory card.

Be sure to make copies of any images you wish to keep before formatting the memory card.

If the message

Card is not formatted. Format card?

is displayed when the camera is turned on, the memory card must be formatted. If there is data that you do not want to delete, select

No

. Copy the necessary data to a computer, etc. If you want to format the memory card, select

Yes

. The confirmation dialog will be displayed. To start formatting, press the k

button.

Do not perform the following during formatting, while data is being written to or deleted from the memory card, or during data transfer to a computer. Failure to observe this precaution could result in the loss of data or in damage to the camera or memory card:

- Open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover to remove/insert the battery or memory card.

- Turn off the camera.

- Disconnect the AC adapter.

Cleaning and Storage

Cleaning

Do not use alcohol, thinner, or other volatile chemicals.

Lens

Monitor

Bod y

Avoid touching glass parts with your fingers. Remove dust or lint with a blower (typically a small device with a rubber bulb attached to one end that is pumped to produce a stream of air out the other end). To remove fingerprints or other stains that cannot be removed with a blower, wipe the lens with a soft cloth, using a spiral motion that starts at the center of the lens and working toward the edges. If this fails, clean the lens using a cloth lightly dampened with commercial lens cleaner.

Remove dust or lint with a blower. To remove fingerprints and other stains, clean the monitor with a soft, dry cloth, being careful not to apply pressure.

Use a blower to remove dust, dirt, or sand, then wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth.

After using the camera at the beach or other sandy or dusty environment, wipe off any sand, dust, or salt with a dry cloth lightly dampened with fresh water and dry thoroughly.

Note that foreign matter inside the camera could cause damage not covered by the warranty.

Storage

Remove the battery if the camera will not be used for an extended period. To prevent mold or mildew, take the camera out of storage at least once a month.

Turn the camera on and release the shutter a few times before putting the camera away again. Do not store the camera in any of the following locations:

Places that are poorly ventilated or subject to humidity of over 60%

Exposed to temperatures above 50°C (122°F) or below –10°C (14°F)
