Compatible batteries

AA-size alkaline batteries (2) or AA-size Ni-MH rechargeable batteries (sold separately) (2)
●
!
Use the same brand and grade AA-size alkaline batteries as those supplied with the camera.
◆
How to use the batteries
◆
h
Never use the following types of batteries as they could cause serious
problems such as battery fluid leakage or overheating:
1. Batteries with split or peeling outer casings
2. Combinations of different types of batteries or new and used batteries
together
h
Do not use manganese or Ni-Cd batteries.
h
Soil, such as fingermarks on the poles of the batteries can shorten time for which the batteries can be
used.
h
The time for which AA-size alkaline batteries (referred to hereafter simply as alkaline batteries) can
be used varies depending on the brand. Some brands of alkaline batteries may stop providing power
more quickly than those supplied with the camera. Note also that due to their nature, the time for
which alkaline batteries can be used decreases in cold conditions (0°C to +10°C/+32°F to +50°F).
The use of AA-size Ni-MH batteries is better for this reason.
h
Use Fujifilm Battery charger (sold separately) to charge AA-size Ni-MH batteries.
h
See P.78-79 for other notes on using batteries.
h
When first purchased or if left unused for a long period, the amount of time which AA-size Ni-
MH batteries can be used may be short. See P.79 for more information.

with the gold contact area on the
xD-Picture Card
and push the card firmly all the way into the slot.
●
!
If the xD-Picture Card is oriented incorrectly, it will not go all
the way into the slot. Do not apply force when inserting an
xD-Picture Card .
●
!
Depending on the camera mode and the type of batteries used, the transition from “ C ” to “ V ” may occur more
quickly.
●
!
Due to the nature of the battery, the battery level warning may appear early when the camera is used in cold
locations. This is normal. Try warming the batteries in your pocket or a similar location before use.
✽
Battery level warning
1) The camera’s estimation of the remaining battery charge varies greatly depending on the camera operation mode.
Consequently, even if “ C ” or “ V ” is not displayed in Playback mode, one of them may appear when you change
to Photography mode.
2) Depending on the battery type and the level of charge in the batteries, the camera may run out of power without first
displaying a battery level warning. This is particularly likely to happen when batteries that have run out of charge
once are re-used.
In situation 2), immediately load new or fully charged replacement batteries.
Turn the camera on and check the battery charge.

Power save function

When the camera is not used for 60 seconds, this function turns off the LCD monitor (sleep mode) to
reduce power consumption (
➡
P.54). If the camera is then left unused for 2 or 5 minutes, the Power
save function turns the camera off. To turn the camera back on, press the “POWER” button.
