The Power-On Lamp

The power-on lamp indicates the following:

Auto Power Off (Standby Mode)

If no operations are performed for one minute (default setting), the monitor will turn
off automatically and the camera will enter standby mode to reduce the drain on the
battery. While the camera is in standby mode, the power-on lamp will blink. If no op-
erations are performed for three minutes after the camera enters standby mode, the
power will turn off automatically and the power-on lamp will go out. The camera will
be reactivated from standby mode when you:

• Press the power switch
• Press the shutter-release button halfway
• Press the

button to view the last picture taken

• Press the MENU button to display the menu for the current mode
• Rotate the mode dial to select a new mode

The length of time before the camera enters standby mode can be changed using the
Auto off option in the setup menu (

119). However, when a menu or the setup

menu is displayed, the monitor will turn off after three minutes, and when pictures are
being shown in a non-stop slide show (

97) or when the camera is powered by an

AC adapter kit, the monitor will turn off after thirty minutes.
When connecting the camera to a computer or printer with a USB cable, Auto power
off function does not work.
