Failure to observe this precaution could deform the camera, cause water to seep inside, or damage the airtight seals, resulting in camera malfunction. • Your Nikon warranty may not cover troubles caused by water seeping inside the camera due to improper handling of the camera. Notes about shockproof performance This camera has passed Nikon’s in-house test (drop test from a height of 180 cm (5 ft 10 in.) on a 5 cm (2 in.) thick plywood panel) compliant with the MIL-STD-810G w/ Change 1 Method 516.7-Shock* standard. Changes in appearance, such as paint peeling off and deformation of the camera, are not measured in Nikon’s in-house test. * U.S. Department of Defense test method standard. This test is defined by preparing 5 cameras and making sure that the test is passed within 5 cameras by dropping in 26 directions (8 corners, 12 edges, and 6 faces) from a height of 122 cm (4 ft). Notes about waterproof and dustproof performance The camera is rated equivalent to JIS/IEC waterproof class 8 (IPX8) and JIS/IEC dustproof class 6 (IP6X) and can shoot images underwater at a depth of 10 m (33 ft) for up to 60 minutes.* * This rating indicates that the camera has been designed to withstand the specified water pressure for the specified period of time when the camera is used according to the methods defined by Nikon. • The waterproof performance of this camera was tested in fresh water (swimming pools, rivers, and lakes) and salt water only. • The inner portion of this camera is not waterproof. Water seeping inside the camera could cause the components to rust, resulting in high repair costs or irreparable damage. • Accessories are not waterproof. 15 Introduction <Important> Notes about shockproof, waterproof, and dustproof performance and condensation Precautions when cleaning • Do not puncture the microphone or speaker openings with a sharp implement. If the inside of the camera is damaged, the waterproof performance will deteriorate. • Do not use soap, neutral detergents, or chemicals such as benzene. Notes about shockproof, waterproof, and dustproof performance • Do not drop the camera, strike it against a hard object such as a rock, or throw it against a water surface. • Do not subject the camera to shock when using it underwater. - Do not subject the camera to water pressure by exposing it to rapids or waterfalls. - Do not expose to depths greater than 10 m (33 ft) underwater. - Make sure not to drop the camera underwater. This camera does not float in water. • Do not continuously use the camera underwater for 60 minutes or more. • Do not insert a wet memory card or battery in the camera. - Do not open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover when the camera or your hands are wet. Doing so may cause water to seep inside the camera or result in camera malfunction. • Do not open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover underwater. 16 Introduction <Important> Notes about shockproof, waterproof, and dustproof performance and condensation • If moisture such as water droplets adheres to the outside of the camera or inside of the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover, immediately wipe it off with a soft dry cloth. - If a foreign substance adheres to the outside of the camera or inside of the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover, immediately remove it with a blower or a soft cloth. - If a foreign substance adheres to the waterproof packing (1) inside the batterychamber/memory card slot cover, remove it with the included brush. Do not use the included brush for anything other than cleaning the waterproof packing. • Do not leave the camera in cold conditions or in hot conditions of 40°C (104°F) or more for a long period of time. - Doing so could cause deterioration of the waterproof performance. - When using the camera underwater, make sure the water temperature is from 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). • Do not use the camera at hot springs. Before using the camera underwater Check the items below before using the camera underwater. • Make sure that there are no foreign substances inside the battery-chamber/ memory card slot cover. • Make sure that the waterproof packing of the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover is not cracked or deformed. - Make sure that the waterproof packing is not detached from the camera. 17 Introduction <Important> Notes about shockproof, waterproof, and dustproof performance and condensation • Make sure that the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover is firmly closed. - Slide the cover until it locks in place with a click. Notes about operating temperature, humidity, and condensation The operation of this camera has been tested at temperatures from –10°C to +40°C (14°F to 104°F). When you use the camera in cold climate regions or at high altitudes, observe the following precautions. • Battery performance deteriorates temporarily when cold. Keep the camera and batteries warm under your clothing before use. • Camera performance may deteriorate temporarily if it is exposed to extreme cold for an extended period. For example, the monitor may appear darker than normal immediately after the camera is turned on, or residual images may be produced. ● Environmental conditions that are likely to cause condensation Fogging (condensation) may occur on the inside of the monitor or lens when there are sharp temperature changes or high humidity, such as in the environmental conditions described below. This is not a camera malfunction or defect. • The camera is suddenly immersed in cold water after being in a hot place on land. • The camera is brought to a warm place such as inside a building after being in the cold outdoors. • The battery-chamber/memory card slot cover is opened or closed in a highhumidity environment. ● Reducing condensation • Open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover, put the camera and a commercially-available desiccant in a container such as a plastic bag, and seal the container. Condensation is less likely to occur if the humidity inside the camera is reduced. • Before using the camera underwater, avoid storing it in locations where the camera may become hot (such as under direct sunlight). If you submerge the camera underwater while it is hot, the sudden change in temperature may cause condensation. ● Clearing the fogging • Turn off the camera and open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover while in a place where the ambient temperature is stable (avoid places with high temperature, high humidity, sand, or dust). To clear the fogging, remove the battery and memory card, and leave the batterychamber/memory card slot cover open to allow the camera to adjust to the ambient temperature. 18 Introduction <Important> Notes about shockproof, waterproof, and dustproof performance and condensation Inspection and repair • If the camera is exposed to shock, it is recommended to consult your retailer or Nikon-authorized service representative to confirm the waterproof performance (charged service). • If the waterproof packing begins to deteriorate, consult your retailer or Nikonauthorized service representative. The waterproof performance of the waterproof packing may start to deteriorate after one year. • If water seeps inside the camera, immediately stop using it and take it to your Nikon-authorized service representative. 19 Introduction <Important> Notes about shockproof, waterproof, and dustproof performance and condensation Parts of the camera The camera body.................................................................................................................. 21 Screen indicators...................................................................................................................24 Using the flexible buttons................................................................................................. 28 The power-on lamp..............................................................................................................30 20 Parts of the camera The camera body 1 Eyelet for strap .................................... 32 2 Shutter-release button.......................... ................................................................42, 77 6 Self-timer lamp ................... 53, 55, 60 AF-assist illuminator ......................140 ( movie-record) button ......... .....................................................................123 Power switch ........................................38 7 Power-on lamp ...................................30 8 Speaker 4 Flash ...........................................................52 9 Lens (with protective glass) 5 Microphone (stereo) 3 21 Parts of the camera The camera body 10 11 12 13 Flexible buttons Referred to as “flexible button 1” through “flexible button 4”, in order from top to bottom. ................ ........................................................................28 Monitor ....................................................24 Charge lamp ..............................36, 148 Flash lamp...............................................52 Multi selector Pressing up, down, left, or right on the multi selector is expressed as , , , or . : Zoom .........................................76 22 Parts of the camera The camera body 14 (shooting/playback mode) button ...................................................... 45 15 Battery-chamber/memory card slot cover ................................................ 33 16 HDMI micro connector (Type D) .............................................................. 153 17 Memory card slot .............................. 33 18 Micro-USB connector ........................... .................................................. 36, 155, 160 19 23 Parts of the camera The camera body Waterproof packing .........................15 20 Tripod socket .....................................199 21 Battery chamber ................................ 33 22 Battery latch ..........................................33 Screen indicators The information that is displayed on the screen changes depending on the camera’s settings and state of use.
