Selecting a Battery
• If batteries are inserted into both the body and grip, the battery levels of both
are checked when the power is turned on. Regardless of the [Select Battery]
settings, both batteries are slightly used.
• When the currently selected battery runs out as a result of the check, [Battery
depleted] appears on the monitor. Turn the camera off and on again, and the
camera will switch to the remaining battery.
