  If you're seeing/smelling smoke then there is something seriously wrong and you should have it serviced.

  tnx jon..although I already think about it but the problem was I am a little bit FAARRR away from the nearest service center of nikon given that I was in mindanao and I had it repaired to manila..by the way im from the phillipines..( that was a 3 days by boat)..but its okay..i will still used it through its manual mode instead in iTTL.
