Caring
for
the
Camera
---------------------------
6 Remove any dust and lint from
the
filter with a blower.
Do
not
use
a blower-brush,
as
the bristles could damage
the
filter.
Dirt that cannot be removed
with
a blower can only be removed by
Nikon-authorized service personnel.
Under
no
circumstances
should
you
touch
or
wipe the filter.
7 Turn the camera off.
The mirror will be lowered and the shutter curtain will close. Replace the lens or
body
cap.

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;
~
156)
or
the
clean image options available in some third-party imaging applications.
