1 Measured at 23 °C/73.4 °F (±2 °C/3.6 °F) with an AF-S NIKKOR 24–120mm f/4G ED VR lens
under the following test conditions: lens cycled from infinity to minimum range and one
photograph taken at default settings once every 30 s. Live view not used.
2 EN-EL15c, EN-EL15b, or EN-EL15 batteries can also be used in place of the EN-EL15a, but note
that fewer pictures may sometimes be taken on a single charge with an EN-EL15 than with an
EN-EL15c/EN-EL15b/EN-EL15a.
3 Requires MH-26a or MH-26 battery charger and BL-5 battery-chamber cover (both available
separately). EN-EL18b, EN-EL18a, and EN-EL18 batteries can be used in place of the EN-EL18c,
but note that fewer pictures can be taken on a single charge with an EN-EL18 than with an
EN-EL18c/EN-EL18b/EN-EL18a.
4 Measured at 23 °C/73.4 °F (±2 °C/3.6 °F) with an AF-S NIKKOR 70–200mm f/2.8E FL ED VR lens
under the following test conditions: vibration reduction off, image quality set to JPEG normal,
image size set to Large, shutter speed
1
/ 250 s, focus cycled from infinity to minimum range
three times after shutter-release button has been pressed halfway for 3 s; six shots are then
taken in succession and monitor turned on for 5 s and then turned off; cycle repeated once
standby timer has expired.
5 Measured at 23 °C/73.4 °F (±2 °C/3.6 °F) with the camera at default settings and an AF-S
NIKKOR 24–120mm f/4G ED VR lens under conditions specified by the Camera and Imaging
Products Association (CIPA). Individual movies are composed of one or more files, each up to
4 GB in size, and can total up to 29 minutes 59 seconds in length; recording may end before
these limits are reached if the camera temperature rises.
Actions such as the following can reduce battery life:
• Using the monitor
• Keeping the shutter-release button pressed halfway
• Repeated autofocus operations
• Taking NEF (RAW) or TIFF (RGB) photographs
• Slow shutter speeds
• Using camera Wi-Fi (wireless LAN) and Bluetooth features
• Using the camera with optional accessories connected
• Using VR (vibration reduction) mode with VR lenses
• Repeatedly zooming in and out with an AF-P lens.
To ensure that you get the most from rechargeable Nikon
EN-EL15a batteries:
• Keep the battery contacts clean. Soiled contacts can reduce
battery performance.
• Use batteries immediately after charging. Batteries will lose
their charge if left unused.
