Sleep Mode

In sleep mode, all camera functions are deactivated and the camera itself is effectively off, consuming almost no power. The camera can be reactivated by pressing the Multi selector or any other buttons on the camera back (except TRANSFER button), by rotating the mode dial, or by pressing the shutter release button halfway.

Using an AC Adapter

When the camera is powered by the AC adapter (available separately), the camera will remain on for thirty minutes if no operations are performed, regardless of the setting in the Auto Off menu.

	Option			Description
				When this option is selected, the camera assigns all subsequent file
		On		numbers sequentially in ascending order, starting from the last number
				used. If the memory card is formatted or a new card inserted in the
				camera, file numbering will continue from the last number used.
				The camera does not store the last file number used. When another
		Off		memory card is inserted or a new file is created, numbering starts from
					Menu
				the lowest number available.
				Clears the current file number from memory. Sequential file numbering	—TheGuide
		Reset		begins again from the lowest number available on the current memory
				card.

File numbering starts over from 0001 if a picture is taken when the current

folder contains a file numbered 9999. The camera will create a new folder by adding one to the current folder number (for example, if the current folder is “100NIKON,” the new folder will be named “101NIKON”). Each folder can hold up to 200 pictures. If file numbering reaches 9999 when the card contains a folder numbered 999, no more pictures can be stored on the card, even if sufficient memory remains. Insert a new memory card or format the current card.

Resetting File Numbering to 0001

To reset file numbering to 0001, insert an empty memory card or format the current memory card before selecting Reset. Note that formatting the memory card deletes all data it may contain, including hidden and protected images.
