Battery check

Battery capacity (%)
displayed for only 3 sec. after
camera is switched on.

In this section we provide a general
explanation of how to read and understand
the battery check display. When the battery
check shows that the batteries are low,
replace the batteries with fresh batteries,
or recharge the Ni-MH, Ni-Cd batteries or
the lithium polymer battery.
Before taking a trip, or before an important
shooting session, always check the battery
capacity.

If the camera is not used for a specified time it will switch off the control panel automatically to
conserve battery power. (

➞ 136) To restore the camera to full operation, half-press the shutter

button.
If the control panel remains off for one hour, the camera will power itself off automatically. To restore
the camera to full operation, you must use the power switch to switch the camera off and switch it
on again.

If you are using the optional lithium polymer
battery, the amount of power remaining is
also displayed as a percentage.

Note
• If you turn the zoom ring or focus ring while

the card access lamp is blinking, the battery
capacity display may blink. Switching the
power switch off and on restores the normal
display.

• Low temperatures could shorten the service

life of some batteries, depending on their
characteristics.
