Power Saving Function (Auto Off)

If no operations are performed for a while, the monitor will turn off, the camera will enter standby
mode, and the power-on lamp will flash. If no operations are performed for approximately another
three minutes, the camera will turn off automatically.
While the camera is in standby mode, the monitor turns back on if you perform any of the following
operations:
➝ Press the power switch, shutter-release button, A (shooting mode) button, c (playback)

button, or

b (e movie-record) button

The time that elapses before the camera enters standby mode can be changed using the Auto off

setting in the setup menu (

A104).

By default, the camera enters standby mode in about one minute when you are using shooting

mode or playback mode.

If you are using the optional AC Adapter EH-62G, the camera enters standby mode after 30 minutes (fixed).

Notes About an AC Power Source

You can use the AC Adapter EH-62G (available separately;

E119) to supply power to the camera

from an electrical outlet for taking pictures and playing back images.

Do not, under any circumstances, use another make or model of AC adapter other than the EH-62G.

Failure to observe this precaution could result in overheating or in damage to the camera.
