Technical Notes—Caring for the Camera

Turn the camera off. The mirror will return to the down position and the

shutter curtain will close. Replace the lens or body cap and disconnect

the AC adapter.

Cleaning the Low-Pass Filter

The low-pass ﬁ lter is extremely delicate and easily damaged. Nikon recom-

mends that ﬁ lter be cleaned only by Nikon-authorized service personnel.

Should you choose to clean the ﬁ lter yourself, follow the steps below.

Raise the mirror as described in steps 1–4 on the preceding page.

Re move dust and lint from the ﬁ lter with a

blow er. Do not use a blower-brush, as the

bris tles could damage the ﬁ lter. Dirt that can

not be removed with a blower can only be re-

moved by Nikon-au tho rized ser vice per son nel.

Un der no circumstances should you touch or

wipe the ﬁ l ter.

Turn the cam era off. The mirror will return to the down position and the

shutter cur tain will close. Replace the lens or body cap.

Servicing the Camera and Accessories

The D70S is a precision device and requires regular servicing. Nikon recommends that

the camera be inspected by the original retailer or Nikon service representative once

every one to two years, and that it be serviced once every three to ﬁ ve years (note that

fees apply to these services). Frequent inspection and servicing are particularly recom-

mended if the camera is used professionally. Any accessories regularly used with the

camera, such as lenses or optional Speedlights, should be included when the camera

is inspected or serviced.

Use an AC Adapter

To prevent the camera from powering off while the mirror is raised, use an EH-5 AC

adapter (available separately) for prolonged inspection or cleaning of the low-pass

ﬁ lter.
