Battery compartment
You can power your FinePix A205 using one of three battery types:
Rechargeable battery NH-10 (Ni-MH battery)
Two rechargeable AA-size Ni-MH batteries
Two AA-size alkaline batteries
The Ni-MH batteries are not fully charged at shipment and must be charged before being used.
The camera has an indicator on the LCD monitor to let you know when battery power is low and
the batteries need recharging. (When no indicator is displayed, the batteries have sufficient
charge.)
xD-Picture Card slot
The camera stores images on a xD-Picture Card, inserted into the xD-Picture Card slot next to the
batteries.
The gold side of the xD-Picture Card should face the gold tab next to the slot.
The number of images you can save depends on the card’s capacity and the resolution and
compression at which the images are shot, as well as the complexity of the images. For a table
listing the estimated capacities of different -sized xD-Picture Cards at various resolutions and
quality settings, see your Owner's Manual.
Tripod mount
The tripod mount is for attaching the camera to a tripod. Use a tripod to avoid blurring of the
image caused by motion of the camera during recording.
Power switch
The Power switch is used to turn the camera on and off.
The Fujifilm FinePix A205 has a Power Save function to conserve battery power. If the camera is
not used in any way for approximately 30 seconds when the camera functions are enabled, this
function temporarily switches off features such as the LCD monitor to reduce power consumption.
If the camera is then left unused for a further period (90 seconds), the Power Save function
automatically switches the camera off. To switch the camera back on, slide the Power switch to
the side to turn the camera off briefly and then turn it back on.
Mode switch
The Mode switch has three settings:
