• Image Storage Capacity and Playback Time
(at 23°C with the LCD monitor on and fresh AA alkaline batteries inserted)
*1: Recording capacity shows approximate number of shots recorded during
CIPA-compliant testing (with LCD monitor on, flash used for 50% of the shots,
and 23°C). Actual performance may vary according to operating conditions.
*2: According to the result of in-house testing.
• Battery Level Indicator
You can check the battery level by the
w
indicator on the LCD monitor.
• Use the AC adapter kit K-AC62 (optional) if you intend to use the

• In general, battery performance may temporarily deteriorate as the
temperature decreases. Be sure to take spare batteries when using
the camera in a cold region and keep the batteries warm by placing
them in your pocket or inside your coat. Battery performance that
has deteriorated due to cold temperature will return to normal
performance when the batteries reach room temperature.
• Due to their characteristics, AA alkaline batteries may not allow
the camera to make full use of its capabilities, and therefore they
are not recommended except for emergency use.
• Due to their characteristics, AA alkaline batteries and nickel manganese
batteries may not allow the camera to make full use of its capabilities
when used at cold temperatures. Use of AA lithium batteries is
recommended when the camera is used at cold temperatures.
• Be sure to take spare batteries with you when traveling abroad or
to a cold region, or if you intend to take a lot of pictures.
