Taking Photographs—Using a Remote Control
The optional ML-L3 remote control can be used for self-portraits or to reduce
blur caused by camera shake.
Before Using the Remote Control
Before using the remote control for the fi rst time, remove the clear plastic
battery insulator sheet.

Long Time-Exposures
When the remote control is used in mode M, can be selected for shutter speed. At
this setting, the shutter opens when the shutter-release button on the optional ML-
L3 remote control is pressed (2 s after the button is pressed in delayed remote mode)
and remains open until the remote-control shutter-release button is pressed a second
time (maximum 30 minutes; 83). Nikon recommends using a fully-charged EN-EL3
battery or an optional EH-5 AC adapter to prevent loss of power while the shutter is
open. Note that if the shutter is open for more than approximately 1 s at any setting,
“noise” in the form of randomly-spaced, brightly-colored pixels may ap pear in the
nal pho to graph.
Using the Built-in Speedlight
In situations in which the fl ash is required, the camera will only respond to the shutter-
release button on the ML-L3 once the fl ash has charged. In , , , and modes,
the fl ash will begin charging when delayed remote or quick-response remote mode is
selected; once the fl ash has charged, the built-in Speedlight will pop up automatically
if required when the shutter-release button on the ML-L3 is pressed. If red-eye reduc-
tion, slow sync with red-eye reduction, auto with red-eye reduction, or auto slow sync
with red-eye reduction is selected, the self-timer lamp will light for about one second
before the shutter is released. In delayed remote mode, the self-timer lamp will blink
for two seconds and then light for one second before the shutter is released.
In P, S, A, and M modes, raising the built-in Speedlight during the two-second count-
down in delayed remote mode will cancel the two-second timer. Wait for the fl ash to
charge and press the shutter-release button on the ML-L3 to restart the timer.
