Ready the camera.
Mount the camera on a tripod or place it on a stable, level surface. To prevent
light entering via the viewfinder interfering with exposure, remove the rubber
eyecup and cover the viewfinder with the supplied DK-5 eyepiece cap (
0 86).
To prevent loss of power before the exposure is complete, use a fully charged
EN-EL15 battery or an optional EH-5b AC adapter and EP-5B power connector.
Note that noise (bright spots, randomly-spaced bright pixels, or fog) may be
present in long exposures; before shooting, choose
On for Long exposure NR
in the shooting menu ( 0 218).
