Technical Support

Nikon strives to produce high quaiity software that is simple to install and operate. If you encounter a
problem installing or operating this software package, please take the following steps before contacting technical
support.

If you are unable to establish communication with your camera through the serial link, check the status of
your communication ports in the Windows® Device Manager, You can open the Device Manager by going to the
Control Panels Folder and Double Clicking on the “System” Icon. Find the “Ports" icon in the list of devices and
click on the “+” sign just to the left of the “Ports" Icon.

Your system may have only one or two Com ports shown. If Com 1 or Com 2 have a red “X” or a yellow
“!” attached, this indicates a system conflict is present. Click on the port icon that shows a conflict and then click
“Remove” at the bottom of the System Properties dialog. Shut the system down via the START menu and then
restart. Windows® will attempt to reinstall the ports using the default values. If the ports still show any conflict after
reinstallation, please contact your system vendor for assistance.

If your Ports appear to be operating properly (no conflicts shown) and you still cannot establish communi
cation with your camera, double click on each Com port in turn and check the settings located under the
“Resources” tab. The ports should be at the expected default settings.

• A basse temperature, quando il mirino si appanna a causa della condensazione del
respiro del fotografo o per altri motivi.

• Ad alte temperature ed in luoghi molto umidi, quando il mirino si appanna a causa di
vapori provenienti dal sudore del fotografo o per altri motivi.

Per mantenere l’efficacia di questo prodotto, assicuratevi di seguire attentamente le
note di cui sotto. L'utilizzo dell’oculare In casi al di fuori di quelli descritti nelle note

Fissaggio deii’Ocuiare dei Mirino Antiappannamento

1. staccare l’oculare in dotazione dal corpo principale della macchina fotografica.

2. Fissare l’Oculare del Mirino Antiappannamento avvitandolo saldamente, nella stessa

maniera in cui era stato avvitato l’oculare in dotazione.

• In alcuni casi, l’immagine può apparire leggermente confusa, ma ciò non ha
ripercussioni sulla qualità finale dell’immagine fotografata.

Note

• Non toccare la piastra di plastica trasparente dell'oculare direttamente con le vostre dita.

• Fare attenzione affinché neve o pioggia non venga a contatto diretto con la piastra di
plastica.

• Utilizzare una spazzola a soffio per rimuovere polvere, gocce d’acqua o neve dalla
piastra di plastica. Se vi è un residuo di umidità sulla piastra di plastica, asciugare tale
residuo con un fazzoletto di carta. In tal caso, fare attenzione affinché il fazzoletto non

venga a contatto con la piastra di plastica.

• Se la piastra di plastica viene macchiata da impronte digitali o appannata da
eccessiva umidità atmosferica, pulirla leggermente con un panno di pelle
scamosciata. Fare attenzione a non strofinare fortemente la piastra di plastica in
quanto ciò potrebbe graffiarne la superficie.

• L’effetto antiappannamento non diminuisce con il tempo, ma l’immagine del mirino
può deteriorarsi in qualità, se la piastra di plastica viene graffiata.

• L’oculare può deformarsi se lasciato in luoghi a temperature estrememente alte; per
esempio vicino a riscaldatori d’aria o in una macchina sotto la luce solare diretta.

• In caso di temperature eccessivamente alte o umidità eccessiva, l’appannamento
dell’oculare non può essere prevenuto completamente.

• Se una smacchiatura sulla piastra di plastica non può essere rimossa strofinandoci
sopra, pulirla facendo attenzione ai punti seguenti:
* Pulire l’oculare gentìlmente, usando un panno soffice ed uno smacchiatore per obiettivi.
* Non asciugare l’oculare usando fonti di calore quali il fon.

* Lo strofinamento della piastra di plastica può occasionamlmente essere causa di

deterioramento nell’efficacia dell’effetto antiappannamento.

• Le smacchiature sulla piastra di plastica non hanno effetto sull’efficacia della capacità

antiappannamento dell’oculare.

Beschlagfreies Sucherokular DK-14/DK-15

Durch die Verwendung eines spezieii beschichteten Kunststoffs wird bei diesen
Sucherokuiaren das Beschiagen reduziert.
Unter toigenden Bedingungen kommt dieser wichtige Vorteil zum Tragen:

• Bei niedrigen Temperaturen, wenn ein herkömmliches Okular durch den Atem des
Fotograten beschlägt und bei hohen Temperaturen und hoher Luftfeuchtigkeit.

Bitte lesen diese Anleitung, damit Sie das Okular optimal nutzen können. Bitte
beachten Sie die Reinigungshinweise.

Geeignete Kameras:

DK-14: FS, F4 Serie, F3HP, F3T, F3P
DK-15: Fl 00, F90X, F90 Serie, F-SOts, F-801, 01

Anbringen des Sucherokulars

Entfernen Sie bitte das mitgelieferte Okular von der Kamera und schrauben Sie das
Anti-Beschlag Okular sicher ein.

• Unter bestimmten Voraussetzungen kann das Sucherbild unscharf erscheinen; dies
hat jedoch keine Auswirkung auf die Aufnahme.

Wichtige Hinweise

• Berühren Sie nicht die transparente Oberfläche des Okulars.

• Vermeiden Sie möglichst Nässe auf dem Okular.

• Zum Reinigen gehen Sie bitte wie folgt vor;
Entfernen Sie Staub mit einem Blasepinsel und entfernen Sie Nässe durch Tupfen mit
einem weichen sauberen Tuch. Bitte gehen Sie behutsam vor, um die Oberfläche nicht
zu beschädigen.

• Wischen Sie bitte Fingerabdrücke und anderen Belag ebenfalls mit einem weichen
und sauberen Tuch ab. Vermeiden Sie dabei starken Druck, der zu Kratzern führen
kann.

• Bei Kratzern verschlechtert sich zwar das Sucherbild, die Antibeschlagwirkung bleibt
aber erhalten.

• Schützen Sie das Okular bitte vor zu hoher Temperatur. Denken Sie auch daran, daß
Temperaturen in einem in der Sonne abgesteiften Fahrzeug besonders stark anstelgen
können.

• Bei sehr hohen Temperaturen und sehr hoher Luftfeuchtigkeit ist keine vollständige
Antibeschlagwirkung möglich.

• Besonders hartnäckige Verschmutzungen beseitigen Sie bitte wie folgt:
* Reinigen Sie das Okular vorsichtig mit einem sauberen weichen Tuch und

Linsenreiniger.

* Lassen Sie das Okular an der Luft trocknen. Auf keinen Fall einen Haartrockner zum

Trocknen benutzen.

* Zu häufiges Reinigen kann die Antibeschlagwirkung einschränken.

• Verschnutzungen auf der Kunststoffplatte haben keinen Effekt auf die
Antibeschlagwirkung.

Notes on memorizing and loading shooting data with the FI 00

• Shooting data cannot be memorized until the camera has been loaded with film.

• When shooting multiple exposures, the shooting data for the first exposure only will
be memorized.

• If the multiple exposure function is set, multiple exposures will be recorded even if

the multiple exposure function is canceled after the first exposure.

• To delete shooting data from the camera’s memory, execute “Delete" on the FI 00
Shooting Data dialog box (see page 22) or select “Delete old data” as an option
with full data.

• If you select “Delete old data" as an option with full data, memorizing new data
when the camera's memory is full deletes the old data. Note that in this case, new
data for one roll of film may delete old data for more than one roll of film. Depending

on the number of exposed frames and other factors, new data for one roll of film

may actually delete more than two rolls’ worth of old data.

• If you select “Stop shooting” as an option with full data, the shutter locks when the
camera’s memory is full. Also, a blinking “Full” indicator appears in place of the
shutter speed indication in the camera’s LCD panel. While in “Stop shooting”
mode, turning the camera’s power switch off, then on again, will make the full­memory warning disappear, and you can continue shooting without memorizing
data. To memorize shooting data, delete old data. Note that data loading options
cannot be modified during shooting (they can be modified only when the frame

counter shows “E”). We recommended that you always download shooting data
from the camera’s memory. For data storage capacity, see page 23.

• The film speed set for the last exposed frame is memorized as shooting data. If you
have modified the film speed in mid-roll, the previously set film speed will not be
memorized.

• If you download shooting data from the FI 00 camera in mid-roll, the shooting data
for the film taken up to that point will also be downloaded. If you download the

shooting data again after taking more pictures with the same roll, the newly down
loaded shooting data is saved with the same name as the previously saved data.

This will replace the older data. To avoid this, input a different file name on the Data

Loading dialog box or modify the file name of the old data.

Notes on memorizing, loading shooting data with the F5

• Shooting data cannot be memorized until the camera has been loaded with film.

• Month, day, hour, minute, second and imprinted letters items can be memorized

only when the Multi-Control Back MF-28 is attached.

• When shooting multiple exposures, the selected data items will be loaded for first

for test shooting.

• To delete shooting data from the camera's memory, select “Delete” on the F5
Shooting Data dialog box (see page 26) or select “Delete old data” as an option
with full data.

• If the camera's memory becomes full after you have selected data loading options

that activates the full-memory warning, the personal computer connection symbol

blinks in the camera’s rear LCD panel.

• If you select “Delete old data” as an option with full data, memorizing new data
when the camera's memory is full deletes the old data.

(The personal computer symbol in the rear LCD panel blinks telling that some data
has been deleted.) Frequent downloading of shooting data is recommended. For

data storage capacity, see page 27.

• If you change the film speed with the frame counter showing “1 ” or higher, this will
not affect the shooting data. The previous set film speed will be memorized for the
shooting data download operation.
