Servicing the Camera and Accessories
The camera is a precision device and requires regular servicing. Nikon recommends that the
camera be inspected by the original retailer or Nikon service representative once everyone
to two years, and that it be serviced once every three to five years (note that fees apply to
these services). Frequent inspection and servicing are particularly recommended if the
camera is used professionally. Any accessories regularly used with the camera, such as
lenses or optional Speedlights, should be included when the camera is inspected or
serviced.
