hPower saving “ON” (default setting)
Power consumption is kept to a minimum to
prevent battery depletion. You should select the
“ON” setting when you are using alkaline
batteries.
iIf the camera is not used for approximately 30
seconds, the LCD monitor switches off temporarily
to reduce power consumption (Sleep mode).
iOnce the camera is in Sleep mode, if it is left
unused for a further 90 seconds, it is automatically
switched off.
iThe charging time for the flash increases slightly
because the flash charging power is reduced.
hPower saving “OFF”
Batteries are more likely to run flat since no
power reduction measures (sleep mode, etc.)
are used. However, this function automatically
switches the camera off if the camera is not
used for approximately 2 minutes.

still switches off automatically if it is not used
for 2 minutes.
