k Auto Off
If no operations are performed for the selected length of time, the monitor will
turn off and the camera will enter standby mode (A 13) to reduce the drain on
the batteries. The power-on lamp will blink in standby mode. If no operations are
performed for about another three minutes, the camera will turn off automatically.
Choose the time allowed to elapse before the camera enters standby mode. The
time options are [30s] (default setting), [1m], [5m], and [30m].
C Notes on Auto Off
Regardless of the option selected, the monitor will remain on for three minutes when menus are
displayed, or for 30 minutes during continuous playback for slide shows or when the AC adapter
(available separately from Nikon) is connected.
