The number of shots that can be taken with fully-charged batteries varies with the 
condition of the battery, temperature, and how the camera is used. In the case of AA 
batteries, capacity also varies with make and storage conditions; some batteries can 
not be used. Sample figures for the camera and optional MB-D11 multi-power 
battery pack are given below.

1 Measured at 23 °C/73.4 °F (±2 °C/3.6 °F) with an AF-S DX NIKKOR 18–105mm f/3.5–5.6G 

ED VR lens under the following test conditions: lens cycled from infinity to minimum 
range and one photograph taken at default settings once every 30 s; flash fired once 
every other shot. Live view not used.

2 Measured at 20 °C/68 °F with an AF-S NIKKOR 70–200mm f/2.8G ED VR II lens under the 

following test conditions: image quality set to JPEG basic, image size set to M (medium), 
shutter speed

s, shutter-release button pressed halfway for three seconds and focus 

cycled from infinity to minimum range three times; six shots are then taken in succession 
and monitor turned on for five seconds and then turned off; cycle repeated once 
exposure meters have turned off.

The following can reduce battery life:
• Using the monitor
• Keeping the shutter-release button pressed halfway
• Repeated autofocus operations
• Taking NEF (RAW) photographs
• Slow shutter speeds
• Using the optional WT-4 wireless transmitter
• Using a GP-1 GPS unit
• Using VR (vibration reduction) mode with VR lenses

To ensure that you get the most from rechargeable Nikon EN-EL15 batteries:
• Keep the battery contacts clean. Soiled contacts can reduce battery performance.
• Use batteries immediately after charging. Batteries will lose their charge if left 

unused.
