• Flash mode (c28), macro close-up mode (c31), and exposure compensation (c32)
cannot be adjusted after the first picture is taken. Apply the appropriate settings before
shooting begins.
• To prevent the camera from turning off unexpectedly during recording, use a fully charged
battery.
• To power the camera continuously for extended periods, use an AC Adapter EH-62D (avail-
able separately from Nikon) (c114). Do not, under any circumstances, use another
make or model of AC adapter. Failure to observe this precaution could result in over-
heating or in damage to the camera.
