Troubleshooting
If the camera fails to function as expected, check the list of common problems below
before consulting your retailer or Nikon-authorized service representative.
Battery/Display
The camera is on but does not respond: Wait for recording to end. If the problem persists, turn the
camera off. If the camera does not turn off, remove and reinsert the battery or, if you are using
an AC adapter, disconnect and reconnect the AC adapter. Note that although any data
currently being recorded will be lost, data that have already been recorded will not be affected
by removing or disconnecting the power source.
Viewfinder is out of focus: Adjust viewfinder focus or use optional eyepiece correction lenses
(0 33, 297).
Viewfinder is dark: Insert a fully-charged battery (0 21, 35).
Displays turn off without warning: Choose longer delays for Custom Setting c2 (Standby timer) or
c4 (Monitor off delay) (0 227, 228).
Control panel and viewfinder displays are unresponsive and dim: The response times and brightness of
these displays vary with temperature.
Fine lines are visible around active focus point or display turns red when focus point is highlighted: These
phenomena are normal for this type of viewfinder and do not indicate a malfunction.
