POWER SUPPLY
Standard Battery Life
This camera can be powered using AA-size alkaline, lithium
or Ni-MH batteries.
The battery life reference values given below indicate the
amount of time at standard temperature (25°C) until power
automatically turns off due to battery failure. They do not
guarantee that batteries will perform the amount of service
indicated. Battery life is reduced by low temperatures and
continued use.
The above figures are approximations only.
The above guidelines are based on the following battery
types:
Alkaline: MX1500 (AA) DURACELL ULTRA
Lithium: Energizer
Ni-MH (Nickel-metal hydride): CASIO NP-H3
Battery life varies with brand.
• Figures are based on continuous recording under the fol-
lowing conditions.
Flash turned off
One zoom slider switching between T (Telephoto) and W
(Wide-angle)
Battery life is greatly affected by how much you use flash,
zoom and other functions, and how long you leave power
turned on.
About rechargeable batteries
Use only the nickel-metal hydride batteries (NP-H3) that
are available from your dealer as options for this camera.
Proper camera operation is not guaranteed when other re-
chargeable batteries are used.
Nickel-metal hydride Batteries (4-battery set)/Quick
Charger Set BC-1HB4
Nickel-metal hydride Batteries (4-battery set) NP-H3P4
Be sure to keep all four batteries together as a set at all
times, for both charging and powering the camera. Mixing
batteries from different sets can shorten overall battery life
and cause malfunction of the camera.
• Rechargeable batteries cannot be charged while they are
loaded in the camera.
Tips for Prolonging Battery Life
Use the button to turn off the flash when you are not using
it.
You can also use the power save settings (E-42) to protect
against wasting battery power when you forget to turn off
the camera.
How low temperature affects battery life
The life of alkaline batteries is shortened by use under very
cold temperatures. The life of alkaline batteries used at 0
o
C
is about one fifth of what it is at normal temperatures (about
25
o
C). When shooting under very cold temperatures, we
recommend use of lithium or nickel metal hydride batteries,
which are not so dramatically affected by cold. If you must
use alkaline batteries, be sure to have plenty of spares on
hand.
