Loading the batteries (Cont.)
●
Manganese (zinc-carbon) batteries cannot be used.
●
The lives of battery packs may vary according to the type of battery,
manufacturer, camera shooting conditions, etc.
●
If the battery power runs out while the camera is connected to a PC, image
data will be corrupted. It is recommended that you use the optional AC
adapter when transferring images to a PC. Do not disconnect or connect
the AC adapter while the camera is communicating with the PC.
●
Power is consumed continuously during the conditions described below.
This could reduce the number of pictures that can be taken.
•When the monitor is turned on.
•Repeated auto-focus by depressing the shutter button halfway.
•Repeated power zoom adjustments.
•When the monitor is in the playback mode for an extended period of time.
•When communicating with a PC.
●
Carefully read the “GENERAL PRECAUTIONS” included in the package
and the AC adapter’s instructions before use.
●
When using an AC adapter, power is supplied to the camera by the AC
adapter even if batteries are loaded in the camera. The AC adapter does
not charge batteries that may be in the camera, it only provides power to
the camera.
●
Do not remove or load batteries and/or do not disconnect or connect the AC
adapter while the camera is turned on. Doing so could damage the
camera’s settings or functions.
