7Turn the camera off.

The mirror will be lowered and the shutter curtain will close. Replace the lens or body cap.

Maximizing the Life of the Camera

B Foreign Matter on the Low-Pass Filter
Nikon takes every possible precaution to prevent foreign matter from coming into contact with the
low-pass filter during production and shipping. The D60, however, is designed to be used with
interchangeable lenses, and foreign matter may enter the camera when lenses are removed or
exchanged. Once inside the camera, this foreign matter may adhere to the low-pass filter, where it
may appear in photographs taken under certain conditions. To protect the camera when no lens is
in place, be sure to replace the body cap provided with the camera, being careful to first remove all
dust and other foreign matter that may be adhering to the body cap.
Should foreign matter find its way onto the low-pass filter, clean the filter as described above, or
have it cleaned by authorized Nikon service personnel. Photographs affected by the presence of
foreign matter on the filter can be retouched using Capture NX (available separately; A 156) or the
clean image options available in some third-party imaging applications.	163
