omatically to prevent the camera overheating, for
example if:
- The ambient temperature is high
- The camera has been used for extended periods to record videos
- The camera has been used in continuous release modes for extended
periods
･ If photographs cannot be taken because the camera is running hot, turn
the camera o and wait for it to cool before trying to take photographs

not indicate a malfunction.
Image artifacts appear in the display during shooting:●
･ T
o reduce noise, adjust settings such as ISO sensitivity, shutter speed, or
Active D-Lighting.
･ At high ISO sensitivities, noise may become more noticeable in long
exposures or in pictures recorded when the camera temperature is
elevated.
･ Randomly-spaced bright pixels, fog, or bright spots may arise as a result
of increases in the temperature of the camera’s internal circuits. Turn the
camera o when it is not in use.
･ Randomly-spaced bright pixels, fog, lines or unexpected colors may
appear if you press the
X
button to zoom in on the view through the
lens during shooting.

the nal picture.

image sensor. Perform pixel mapping using [Pixel mapping] in the
setup menu.
