Raise the mirror.
Press the shutter-release button all the way
down. The mirror will be raised and the
shutter curtain will open, revealing the
image sensor. The display in the viewfinder
will turn off and the row of dashes in the control panel will flash.

Examine the image sensor.
Holding the camera so that light falls on the image sensor,
examine the sensor for dust or lint. If no foreign objects
are present, proceed to Step 8.
7
Clean the sensor.
Remove any dust and lint from the sensor with a blower.
Do not use a blower-brush, as the bristles could damage
the sensor. Dirt that can not be removed with a blower can
only be removed by Nikon-authorized service personnel.
Under no circumstances should you touch or wipe the
sensor.

Turn the camera off.
The mirror will return to the down position and the shutter curtain will close.
Replace the lens or body cap.
