When in video camera mode, press menu, and change auto focus mode from c (continuous) to s (single). The noise you hear is the auto focus motor going back and forth, trying to find the object focus constantly. You can use this only if the object is not changing the distance to the camera while recording.
defective image processor. use in continuous mode, but take only 1 shot. may not be expensive to fix. not user serviceable, and not something you can't live with if you can take images in cont mode. consider having it evaluated by the factory and getting a quote for repair if it bothers you not being able to shoot in single shot mode. nikon does seem to have more trouble than most in their non-premium products. good luck mark
Contact Nikon on thier website, they will send you a reply and a link for return service and fix it for free. This website is no help, they want you to subscribe to a service before they reveal any info.
The continous icon looks like multiple papers stacked on top of each other (in contrast the normal icon for single shot is a square box with an S in it so you can get it back to normal)
The camera takes shots at 1.5 frames per second, or about three frames every two seconds for image size of 2272x1704.
The shutter-release button has to be held down
Continuous is not available in HI image quality
Shooting will slow when memory buffer fills.
Setting to continuous...
Put your camera in P, S, A, or M mode.
I suggest P mode, this is for Program mode and does everything as Auto does, but allows you to override settings (except Aperture and Shutter).
Press the Menu button
Access the Continuous menu
Select the Continuous menu option, again looks like layered papers.
Try checking your settings for the type of shot you are taking and for the type of focus...... type of shot is the dial on the top, and then: 1) menu, metering and also check your autofocus mode 2)menu, autofocus; try the single autofocus, it might be set to continual
Also, you could try updating the firmware in your camera. You do this through the Nikon website.
