Nikon 25478 Before Using the Remote Control, Cover the Viewfinder, Using the Built-in Flash

DBefore Using the Remote Control

Before using the remote control for the first time, remove the clear plastic battery-insulator sheet.

ACover the Viewfinder

When taking photos without your eye to the viewfinder, remove the DK-20 rubber eyecup (q) and insert the supplied DK-5 eyepiece cap as shown (w). This prevents light entering via the viewfinder interfering with exposure. Hold the camera firmly when removing the rubber eyecup.

DUsing the Built-in Flash

Before taking a photograph with the flash in P, S, A, M, or 0modes, press the M button to raise the flash and wait for the Mindicator to be displayed in the viewfinder (0 20). Shooting will be interrupted if the flash is raised while a remote control mode is in effect or after the self- timer has started. If the flash is required, the camera will only respond to the ML-L3 shutter- release button once the flash has charged. In auto or scene modes in which the flash pops up automatically, the flash will begin charging when a remote control mode is selected; once the flash is charged, it will automatically pop up and fire when required. Note that only one photograph will be taken when the flash fires, regardless of the number of exposures selected for Custom Setting c3 (Self-timer).

In flash modes that support red-eye reduction, the red-eye reduction lamp will light for about one second before the shutter is released in quick-response remote mode. In delayed remote mode, the self-timer lamp will light for two seconds, followed by the red-eye reduction lamp which light for one second before the shutter is released.
