Questions and answers
Q: What kind of batteries should I use?
A: Use two 3V lithium batteries (DL123A or CR123A). Do not
mix new and old batteries at the same time. Change them both
at the same time.
Q: How long will the battery last?
A: If you use 24-exposure rolls of film and expose half of all
your pictures with flash, two new 3V lithium batteries
(DL123A/CR123A) will allow you to take 30 or more rolls of
film. If you do not use flash and zoom so often, the batteries
will last much longer.

A: (1)Make sure the power switch is ON. (2)Make sure there are
batteries in the camera, and that they are inserted correctly.

will not operate until the back cover is opened. (4)While the
flash is being charged, the shutter will not release. (5)If the
distance range to the subject is less than 0.6m in normal
shooting mode, the shutter will not release.
Q: The camera does not focus correctly. What should I do?

as your subject. (Refer to page 24.)
