Marine Case MC-DG110

Protects the camera down to a depth of 30m (approximately
100ft.) underwater. The extremely compact shell retains the
camera’s portability while protecting it from the elements on
land or sea. All camera operations are available when the case
is sealed. Availability depends on the region. Contact your local
dealer or an authorized Minolta Service Facility for details.

AC Adapter AC-4 or AC-5

The AC adapter allows the camera to be powered from a household outlet. The AC
adapter is recommended when the camera is interfaced with a computer or during peri-
ods of heavy use. AC adapter model AC-4 is for use in North America, Japan and
Taiwan, and AC -5 is for use in all other regions.
