90Shooting Options: The Shooting MenuShooting, Playback, and Setup MenusE ISO SensitivitySensitivity 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.At settings other than Auto, the current setting is displayed in the monitor (A6). If Auto is selected and the sensitivity is raised above an ISO 100, the E icon will be displayed (A31).F Color OptionsMake colors more vivid or record pictures in monochrome.The effects of the selected option can be previewed in the monitor. At settings other than Standard color, the icon for the current setting is displayed in the monitor (A6). Monitor color tones also change depending upon the setting.Auto (default setting)Sensitivity is ISO 100 under normal conditions; when lighting is poor, the camera compensates by raising sensitivity to a maximum of ISO 1600#.100, 200, 400, 800, 1600, 3200#Sensitivity will be locked at the specified value.nStandard color (default setting)Use for pictures exhibiting natural color.oVivid colorUse to achieve a vivid, “photoprint” effect.pBlack-and-whiteRecord pictures in black-and-white.qSepiaRecord pictures in sepia tones.rCyanotypeRecord pictures in cyan-blue monochrome.uPastelChange to a pastel shade.Q7115_25_UM_EN.book Page 90 Friday, May 30, 2008 2:32 PM91Shooting Options: The Shooting MenuShooting, Playback, and Setup MenusG AF Area ModeUse this option to determine where the camera focuses.When digital zoom is in effect, the camera will focus on the subject in the center focus area regardless of the applied AF area mode option.zFace priorityThe camera automatically detects and focuses on a face looking toward the camera (Shooting with Face Priority ➝A93). If the camera detects multiple faces, the camera focuses on the face closest to the camera. When shooting pictures of subjects other than people, or framing a subject with which no face is recognized, AF area mode will be set to Auto. The camera chooses the focus area (one of nine) containing the subject closest to the camera and focuses on the subject. wAuto (default setting)Camera automatically selects the focus area (one of nine) containing the subject closest to the camera. Press the shutter-release button halfway to activate the focus area. When the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, the focus area selected by the camera will be displayed in the monitor. xManualThis option is suited to situations in which the intended subject is relatively still and not positioned in the center of the frame.

118Technical NotesImage/Sound File and Folder NamesPictures, movies, voice memos, and voice recordings are assigned file names as follows. •Files are stored in folders named with a folder number followed by a five-character identifier: “SOUND” (normal quality sound) for voice recordings (e.g., “101SOUND”; A65), and “NIKON” for all other pictures (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”. •Voice memo file names have the same identifier and file number as the picture to which the voice memo is attached.•Files copied using Copy>Selected images or Copy sound files>Selected files 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 and Copy sound files>Copy all files copy 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 (A69, 101).•A single folder can hold up to 200 pictures; if the current folder already contains 200 pictures, a new folder, named by adding one to the current folder name, will be created the next time a picture is taken. If the current folder is numbered 999 and contains 200 pictures, or a picture is numbered 9999, no further pictures can be taken until the internal memory or memory card is formatted (A113), or a new memory card is inserted.

120Caring for the CameraTechnical NotesCThe Battery•Check the battery level when taking the camera out, and charge the battery if necessary (A12, 16). Do not continue charging once the battery is fully charged, as this will result in reduced battery performance. If possible, carry a fully-charged spare battery when taking pictures on important occasions.•Do not use the battery at ambient temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F) or above 40 °C (104 °F). When recharging, the ambient temperature should be in the vicinity of 5 to 35 °C (41 to 95 °F).The battery will not charge if its temperature is below 0 °C (32 °F) or above 60 °C (140 °F).Charge capacity may be reduced at battery temperatures from 0 °C to 15 °C (32 °F to 59 °F) and from 45 °C to 60 °C (113 °F to 140 °F). Note that the battery may become hot during use; wait for the battery to cool before charging. Failure to observe these precautions could damage the battery, impair its performance or prevent it from charging normally.•On cold days, the capacity of batteries tends to decrease. Be sure that the battery is fully charged 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. Should the battery terminals become dirty, wipe them off with a clean, dry cloth before use.•When the battery is not in use, remove it from the camera or battery charger and replace the terminal cover. The camera and battery charger draw minute amounts of current even when off; if left in place, the battery could be drained to the point that it no longer functions. Turning the camera on or off while the battery is exhausted can result in reduced battery life. Recharging an exhausted battery within six months is recommended. If the battery will not be used for an extended period, store it in a cool (15 to 25 °C / 59 to 77 °F), dry place. Recharge it at least once every six months and run it flat before returning it to storage.•Replace the battery when it no longer holds a charge. Used batteries are a valuable resource. Please recycle used batteries in accordance with local regulations.Q7115_25_UM_EN.book Page 120 Friday, May 30, 2008 2:32 PM121Caring for the CameraTechnical NotesCleaningDo not use alcohol, thinner, or other volatile chemicals.StorageTurn 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 naptha 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.CNotes 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 recorded 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 appear in the final photograph and does not indicate a malfunction. Some smear may appear in movies.•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.LensAvoid 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.BodyUse 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.Q7115_25_UM_EN.book Page 121 Friday, May 30, 2008 2:32 PMQ7115_25_UM_EN_1st
