  • Page 264: The Low-Pass Filter

    The Low-Pass Filter The image sensor that acts as the camera’s picture element is fitted with a low-pass filter to prevent moiré. If you suspect that dirt or dust on the filter is appearing in photographs, you can clean the filter using the Clean image sensor option in the setup menu.

  • Page 265
    Cleaning is performed by vibrating the image sensor. If dust can not be fully removed using the options in the Clean image sensor menu, clean the image sensor manually (pg. 246) or consult a Nikon-authorized service representative. If image sensor cleaning is performed several times in succession, image sensor cleaning may be temporarily disabled to protect the camera’s internal circuitry.
  • Page 266
    (pg. 244), the filter can be cleaned manually as described below. Note, however, that the filter is extremely delicate and easily damaged. Nikon recommends that the filter be cleaned only by Nikon-authorized service personnel.

  • Page 267: Accessories

    Nikon takes every possible precaution to prevent foreign matter from coming into contact with the low-pass filter during production and shipping. The D90, however, is designed to be used with interchangeable lenses, and foreign matter may enter the camera when lenses are removed or exchanged.
