Quick Start Basics

Checking Remaining Battery Power

As battery power is consumed, a battery indicator on the monitor screen indicates

remaining power as shown below.

The flash will take longer than normal to charge if it is being used when the battery

level indicator is showing or while “Alkaline” is selected for the “Battery

Type” setting (page 15).

indicates that the flash is disabled. Replace batteries as soon as possible.

• The level shown by the battery indicator may change when you switch between the

REC mode and PLAY mode.

• Leaving the camera for about one day with no power supplied while the batteries

are dead will cause its date and time settings to be cleared. You will have to

re-configure the settings after power is restored.

• See page 174 for information about battery life and memory capacity.

• Certain camera operating conditions and battery can cause the battery level

indicator to indicate the battery level incorrectly. In this case, the camera may

suddenly shut down without retracting the lens. If this happens, replace or charge

the batteries and configure the correct “Battery Type” setting.

Battery Power Conservation Tips

• When you do not need to use the flash, select ? (flash off) for the flash setting

(page 35).

• Enable the Auto Power Off and the Sleep features to protect against wasting

battery power when you forget to turn off the camera (pages 131, 131).

• Select “Off” for “Continuous AF” (page 81).

• Turn off the LCD monitor screen and use the viewfinder (page 136).

• Avoid unnecessary optical zoom operations.
