Battery condition indicator

Full-battery indicator - the battery is fully charged. This icon
is displayed for five seconds on the monitor when the
camera is turned on. The icon remains on the data panel.

Blinking low-battery warning - displayed on the data panel
with no other icons; power is insufficient for camera
operation. The shutter will not release. 

Low-battery indicator - battery power is low. The battery
should be replaced as soon as possible. The monitor will
turn off while the flash is charging to save power.

This camera is equipped with an automatic battery-condition indicator. When the
camera is on, the battery-condition indicator appears on the data panel and monitor. If
the data panel and monitor are blank, the battery may be exhausted or installed
incorrectly.

The AC Adapter AC-6 allows the camera to be powered from an electrical household
outlet. The AC Adapter is recommended when the camera is interfaced with a
computer or during periods of heavy use.

Always turn off the camera before

changing between power supplies. 

Connecting the AC adapter (sold separately)

Auto power save

To conserve battery power, the camera will turn off displays and unnecessary functions
if an operation is not made within a minute. The LCD monitor turns off after thirty
seconds. To restore power, press any button or key, or turn the mode dial to another
position. Except for the thirty-second monitor period, the length of the auto-power-save
period can be changed in the basic section of the setup menu (p. 

96

).

Lift the DC terminal cover from the bottom (1).
The cover is attached to the body to prevent
loss.

Insert the mini plug of the AC adapter into the
DC terminal (2).

Insert the AC adapter plug into an electrical
outlet.

Low-battery warning - battery power is very low. The
monitor icon is red. The battery should be replaced as soon
as possible. This warning automatically appears and
remains on the monitor until the battery is changed. The
monitor will turn off while the flash is charging to save
power. If power falls below this level, the battery-exhausted
message will be displayed just before the camera shuts
down.
