Nikon D70SBODY manual Firmware Ver, 167, Image Dust Off Reference Data

4 Position the lens ten centimeters (four inches) from a bright, featureless white object. After framing the object so that nothing else is visible in the viewfinder, press the shutter-release button halfway. In autofocus mode, focus will automatically be set to infinity; in manual focus mode, set focus to infinity manually before pressing the shutter-release button.

5 Press the shutter-release button the rest of the way down to acquire Im- age Dust Off reference data (note that noise reduction turns on automati- cally when the subject is poorly lit, increasing the amount of time needed to record the data). The monitor turns off when the shutter-release but- ton is pressed.

If the reference object is too bright or too dark, the camera may be unable to acquire Image Dust Off reference data and the mes- sage shown at right will be displayed. Choose another reference object and repeat the pro- cess from Step 3.
