Servicing Your Camera and Accessories
Your camera is a precision machine and requires regular servicing. We recommend that you
have your camera inspected by your retailer or Nikon service representative once every one

charged for these services). Frequent inspection and servicing are particularly recommended
if you use your camera professionally. When having your camera inspected or serviced, we
recommend that you bring you bring any accessories regularly used with the camera, such as
lenses and flash units.
Buying Camera Accessories
Your camera is optimized for use with Nikon-brand accessories. Accessories sold by other
manufacturers may not be made to Nikon specifications and could damage your camera. Nikon
can not guarantee performance when the camera is used with non-Nikon accessories.
