8.7 volts. Should be plenty. Three brand new CR2 lithiums.

D.

Couldn't wait, eh? I would charge up the battery that comes with it
and
give it another try, including another reset. There could be a
problem with
the CR2's, or the holder for them. I mean, geez. The CR2's cost
almost as
much as a second rechargeable battery.



Almost? I bought two of the Chinese knockoffs on E-Bay for under
twenty bucks and they work just as well as the one that came with it.
If I recall, the CR2's are about four dollars a piece or more.



If that doesn't do it try giving Nikon a call. Might be something
simple.

Just in a hurry to use my new camera; maybe not the best plan.

When I bought mine, it was from a dealer who uses one in his studio. I gave him
my new battery in exchange for his (1 month ond) just charged one. I was up and
running right away. :-)

My supplier loaned me his battery for a couple of days
