Pictures taken with your Nikon Digital Camera may be too dark because the flash mode is set to W (off), the flash window is blocked, or the subject is beyond the flash range. You can adjust exposure compensation or increase ISO sensitivity. If the subject is backlit, select Backlight scene mode or set the flash mode setting to X (fill flash).

Set the correct time and date from the Date option in the setup menu, and check the camera clock regularly, resetting it as needed.
