Troubleshooting
Problem
Monitor turns off, and the
power-on lamp blinks rapidly.
Camera becomes hot.
Electronically Controlled Cameras
In extremely rare instances, unusual characters may appear in the monitor and the
camera may stop functioning. In most cases, this phenomenon is caused by a
strong external static charge. Turn the camera off, remove and replace the battery,
then turn the camera on again. In the event of continued malfunction, contact
your retailer or Nikon-authorized service representative. Note that disconnecting
the power source as described above may result in the loss of any data not saved
to internal memory or the memory card at the time the problem occurred. Data
already saved will not be affected.
Shooting
Problem
Cannot switch to shooting
mode.
No image captured when
shutter-release button is
pressed.
186
Cause/Solution
Battery temperature is high. Turn off camera and
allow battery to cool down before resuming use.
After the lamp blinks for three minutes, the
camera will turn off automatically. Pressing the
power switch also turns off the camera.
The camera may become hot when shooting
movies for an extended period of time or when
the camera is used in a hot area; this is not a
malfunction.
Cause/Solution
Disconnect HDMI cable or USB cable.
• When camera is in playback mode, or setting
items or setup menu are displayed, press the
shutter-release button.
• Battery is exhausted.
• When flash lamp blinks, flash is charging.
