Information and Precautions
Notice Concerning Prohibition of Copying or Reproduction
Introduction
Note that simply being in possession of material that was digitally copied or reproduced by means
of a scanner, digital camera or other device may be punishable by law.
• Items prohibited by law from being copied or reproduced
Do not copy or reproduce paper money, coins, securities, government bonds or local government
bonds, even if such copies or reproductions are stamped “Sample”. The copying or reproduction
of paper money, coins, or securities that are circulated in a foreign country is prohibited. Unless the
prior permission of the government was obtained, the copying or reproduction of unused
postage stamps or post cards issued by the government is prohibited. The copying or
reproduction of stamps issued by the government and of certified documents stipulated by law is
prohibited.
• Cautions on certain copies and reproductions
The government has issued cautions on copies or reproductions of securities issued by private
companies (shares, bills, checks, gift certificates, etc.), commuter passes or coupon tickets, except
when a minimum of necessary copies are to be provided for business use by a company. Also, do
not copy or reproduce passports issued by the government, licenses issued by public agencies
and private groups, ID cards and tickets, such as passes and meal coupons.
• Comply with copyright notices
The copying or reproduction of copyrighted creative works such as books, music, paintings,
woodcut prints, maps, drawings, movies and photographs is governed by national and
international copyright laws. Do not use this product for the purpose of making illegal copies or to
infringe copyright laws.
Disposing of Data Storage Devices
Please note that deleting images or formatting data storage devices such as memory cards or builtin camera memory does not completely erase the original image data. Deleted files can sometimes
be recovered from discarded storage devices using commercially available software, potentially
resulting in the malicious use of personal image data. Ensuring the privacy of such data is the user’s
responsibility.
Before discarding a data storage device or transferring ownership to another person, erase all data
using commercial deletion software, or format the device and then completely refill it with images
containing no private information (for example, pictures of empty sky). Be sure to also replace any
pictures selected for the welcome screen (A 97). Care should be taken to avoid injury or damage to
property when physically destroying data storage devices.

Digital Zoom and Interpolation
Unlike optical zoom, digital zoom uses a digital imaging process known as interpolation to magnify
images, resulting in slight deterioration of image quality.
Interpolation is applied when shooting still images at zoom positions beyond V.
When zoom is increased beyond the V position, interpolation is initiated and the zoom indicator
turns yellow to indicate that interpolation is being applied.
The position of V moves to the right as image size decreases, allowing you to confirm the zoom
positions at which still images can be captured without interpolation using the current image mode
setting.

Basic Photography and Playback: G Easy Auto Mode
Autofocus may not perform as expected in the following situations. In some rare cases, the subject
may not be in focus despite the fact that the focus area or the focus indicator glows green:
• Subject is very dark
• Objects of sharply differing brightness are included in the scene (e.g. the sun is behind the subject
and the subject is in deep shadow)
• No contrast between the subject and surroundings (e.g. when the subject is wearing a white shirt
and 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)
• Subject is moving rapidly
In these situations, try pressing the shutter-release button halfway again to refocus, several times if
necessary. If the subject is still not in focus, select auto mode and use focus lock (A 48) to take the
picture by first focusing on an object that is the same distance from the camera as the desired
subject.

Notes on Face Detection
• The camera’s ability to detect faces depends on a variety of factors, including
whether or not the subject is facing the camera. The camera may be unable to
detect faces in the following situations:
- When faces are partially hidden by sunglasses or other obstructions
- When faces take up too much or too little of the frame
• When there are multiple people in the frame, the face on which the camera
focuses depends on a variety of shooting conditions, such as whether or not the
subject is facing the camera.
• In some cases, including those noted in “Autofocus” (A 25), autofocus may not
perform as expected, and the subject may not be in focus despite the fact that
the double border glows green. When the camera is unable to focus, use
another mode, such as A (auto) mode, focus on another subject positioned at
the same distance from the camera as the actual portrait subject, and use focus
lock (A 48).
Using the Flash
In dark locations or when the subject is backlit, you can shoot pictures with flash
by raising the built-in flash.
• The flash has a range of about 0.5 to 5.5 m (1 ft. 8 in. to 18 ft.) when the camera is
zoomed out all the way, and about 1.5 to 3.5 m (5 ft. to 11 ft.) when the camera
is zoomed in all the way.
• If the built-in flash is raised when using easy auto mode (A 20), the camera
automatically sets a flash mode according to the determined scene mode.
When the built-in flash is lowered, the flash setting changes to off and W is
displayed at the top of the monitor.
When using Auto mode (A 48), certain scene modes (A 35), or smart portrait
mode (A 44), the following flash modes are available.
U

Red-eye Reduction
This camera is equipped with an advanced red-eye reduction system.
Pre-flashes are fired several times at low intensity before the main flash to reduce the effects of redeye.
If the camera detects “red-eye” when a picture is taken, Nikon’s own In-Camera Red-Eye Fix
processes the image before it is saved.
Note the following when using red-eye reduction:
• Because pre-flashes are fired before the picture is taken, there is a slight lag between when the
shutter-release button is pressed and when the picture is shot.
• The time required to save images increases slightly.
• Red-eye reduction may not always produce the desired results.
• In some rare cases, other portions of images may be affected. Use flash modes other than auto

Exposure Compensation Value
When shooting mode is A (auto) mode (A 48), the exposure compensation setting is saved even
if the camera is turned off.
D
Using Exposure Compensation
• The camera tends to reduce exposure when the frame is dominated by brightly lit objects and to
increase exposure when the frame is mostly dark. Positive compensation may therefore be
required to capture the brilliancy of very bright objects that fill the frame (for example, sunlit
expanses of water, sand, or snow) or when the background is much brighter than the main
subject.
• Negative compensation may be called for when large areas of the frame contain very dark objects
(for example, a swath of dark green leaves) or when the background is much darker than the main
subject.

More on Shooting
The color of light reflected from an object varies with the color of the light source.
The human brain is able to adapt to changes in the color of the light source, with
the result that white objects appear white whether seen in the shade, direct
sunlight, or under incandescent lighting. Digital cameras can mimic this
adjustment by processing images according to the color of the light source. This is
known as “white balance”.
Although the default setting, Auto can be used under most types of lighting, you
can apply the white balance setting suited to a particular light source to achieve
more accurate results.

E ISO Sensitivity
Set to A (auto) mode (A 48) M d (Shooting menu) M E ISO sensitivity
Sensitivity is a measure of how quickly the camera reacts to light. The higher the
sensitivity, the less light needed to make an exposure. Although a high ISO rating
is suited for taking pictures of subjects in action or in poor lighting, high sensitivity
is often associated with “noise” - randomly spaced, brightly colored pixels
concentrated in dark parts of the image.
Auto (default setting)
More on Shooting
Sensitivity is ISO 80 under normal conditions; when lighting is poor and the flash is
off, the camera compensates by raising sensitivity to a maximum of ISO 800.
80, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600, 3200, 6400
Sensitivity will be locked at the specified value.

Movie Recording and Playback
• The movie bitrate is the volume of movie data recorded per second. As a variable bitrate
(VBR) system has been adopted, the movie recording rate varies automatically according to
the subject so that more data is recorded per second for movies containing frequently
moving subjects, thus increasing movie file size.
• The frame rate is approximately 30 frames per second in any options.
All figures are approximate. The maximum recording time varies depending on the type of memory
card used, the bit rate of recorded movies, etc.
* The maximum recording time for each movie is 29 minutes. Even if the memory card has capacity
to record for more than 29 minutes, the camera displays no more than 29 minutes as the available
recording time.

V
On (hybrid)
Image-sensor shift vibration reduction reduces the effects of camera shake.
Additionally, electronic vibration reduction is used to process images and remove
the effects of camera shake in the following situations.
• When the flash does not fire
• When a shutter speed slower than 1/60 seconds is used
• When Self-timer is disabled
• When Continuous is set to Single
• When ISO sensitivity is set to 200 or less

Vibration reduction is not used.
The vibration reduction setting can be confirmed in the monitor during shooting
(A 8, 21) (When it is set to Off, no icon is displayed).
B
Notes on Vibration reduction
• Vibration reduction may take a few seconds to activate after the power is turned on, or the camera
enters shooting mode from playback mode. Wait until the display stabilizes before shooting.
• Due to characteristics of the vibration reduction function, images displayed on the camera’s
monitor immediately after shooting may appear blurry.
• Vibration reduction may be unable to completely eliminate the effects of camera shaking in some situations.
• When set to On (hybrid), electronic vibration reduction may not reduce the effects of camera
shake if the amount of vibration is very small or very large.
• When set to On (hybrid), electronic vibration reduction does not function if shutter speed is fast
or very slow.
• When set to On (hybrid), the camera automatically releases the shutter two times for each shot
and processes the image, therefore it takes more time to save captured images. The Shutter
sound (A 107) will be heard only once. Only one image is saved.

B
Do not drop
The product may malfunction if subjected to strong shock or vibration.
B
Handle the lens and all moving parts with care
Do not apply force to the lens, monitor, memory card slot or battery chamber. These parts are easily
damaged. Applying force to the lens cover could result in camera malfunction or damage to the
lens. 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.
Notes on Camera Care and General Usage
B
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 deterioration of the image sensor, producing a white
blur effect in photographs.
B
Keep away from strong magnetic fields
Do not use or save this device in the vicinity of equipment that generates strong electromagnetic
radiation or magnetic fields. Strong static charges or the magnetic fields produced by equipment
such as radio transmitters could interfere with the monitor, damage data saved on the memory card,
or affect the product’s internal circuitry.
B
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.
B
Turn the product off before removing or disconnecting the power source
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.

Caring for the Camera
C
The Battery
• After purchasing replacement rechargeable batteries, charge them before use. They are not fully
charged at the time of purchase.
Be sure to read and follow the information found in “Optional Accessories” (A 122) and in the
documentation included with the Battery Charger MH-73 (available separately).
• Check the battery level when taking the camera out, and replace the batteries if necessary (A 20).
If possible, carry spare batteries when taking pictures on important occasions.
• Battery capacity tends to decrease on cold days. Be sure that the batteries are fresh before heading
outside to take pictures in cold weather. Keep spare batteries in a warm place and exchange as
necessary. Once warmed, a cold battery may recover some of its charge.
• Dirt on the battery terminals can prevent the camera from functioning.
• Used batteries are a valuable resource. Please recycle used batteries in accordance with local
regulations.

Cleaning
Notes on Camera Care and General Usage
120
Lens
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.
Monitor
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.
Body
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 seaside, wipe off any sand or salt
with a dry cloth lightly dampened with fresh water, then dry thoroughly. Note
that foreign matter inside the camera could cause damage not covered by the
warranty.
Do not use alcohol, thinner, or other volatile chemicals.
Caring for the Camera
Storage
Turn the camera off when not in use. Check that the power-on lamp is off before
putting the camera away. Remove the battery if the camera will not be used for an
extended period. Do not store the camera with naphtha or camphor moth balls, or
in any of the following locations:
• Next to equipment that produces strong electromagnetic fields, such as
televisions or radios
• Exposed to temperatures below –10 °C (14 °F) or above 50 °C (122 °F)
• Poorly ventilated or subject to humidities of over 60%
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.
Notes on the Monitor
• The monitor may contain a few pixels that are always lit or that do not light. This is a characteristic
common to all TFT LCD displays, and does not indicate a malfunction. Images saved using the
product will not be affected.
• When framing bright subjects, vertical comet-like streaks that whiten toward either end may
appear in the display. This phenomenon, known as “smear”, does not indicate a malfunction.
In shooting modes other than Sport continuous mode, Multi-shot 16 and movie mode, smear has
no effect on the images that are saved.
• Images in the monitor may be difficult to see under bright lighting.
• The monitor is lit by an LED backlight. Should the monitor begin to dim or flicker, contact your
Nikon-authorized service representative.

Notes on Camera Care and General Usage
C
Notes on Smear
White or colored streaks may be visible when bright subjects are framed in the monitor. This
phenomenon, known as “smear,” occurs when extremely bright light strikes the image sensor; it is
characteristic of image sensors and does not indicate a malfunction. Smear may also take the form of
partial discoloration in the monitor during shooting. It does not appear in images recorded with the
camera except in the cases of movies and of images recorded with Multi-shot 16 selected for
Continuous. When shooting in these modes, we recommend that you avoid bright subjects such
as the sun, reflected sunlight, and electric lights.

• Files are saved in folders named with a folder number followed by a fivecharacter identifier: “P_” plus a three-digit sequence number for images taken
using panorama assist (e.g. “101P_001”; A 42) and “NIKON” for all other images
(e.g. “100NIKON”). When the number of files within a folder reaches 9999, a new
folder will be created. File numbers will be assigned automatically starting with
“0001”.
• Files copied using Copy > Selected images are copied to the current folder,
where they are assigned new file numbers in ascending order starting from the
largest file number in memory. Copy > All images copies all folders from the
source medium; file names do not change but new folder numbers are
assigned in ascending order, starting from the largest folder number on the
destination medium (A 116).
• Folders can hold up to 200 images; if an image is taken when the current folder
contains 200 images, a new folder will be created by adding one to the current
folder number. If an image is taken when the current folder is numbered 999
and contains 200 images or an image numbered 9999, no further images can be
taken until the medium is formatted (A 109) or a new memory card inserted.
