• Flash mode (c 28), macro close-up mode (c 31), and exposure compensation (c 32)

cannot be adjusted after the first picture is taken. Apply the appropriate settings before
shooting begins.

• To prevent the camera from turning off unexpectedly during recording, use a fully charged

battery.

• To power the camera continuously for extended periods, use an AC Adapter EH-64 (avail-

able separately from Nikon) (c 122). Do not, under any circumstances, use another
make or model of AC adapter
. Failure to observe this precaution could result in over-
heating or in damage to the camera.
