On Nickel Metal Hydride
batteries

Effective use of the battery

• We recommend that you use batteries until they are

completely drained before charging them.

• Battery performance decreases in low-temperature

surroundings, and the battery life is shortened under
such circumstances. To use the battery longer, we
recommend you keep the battery in its case in a
pocket close to your body to warm it, and insert it in
your camera just before you start shooting.

• If you use the LCD screen with [LCD LIGHT] to

[ON], the battery power will be used up faster.

• We recommend having spare batteries handy for two

or three times the expected shooting time, and try test
shooting before actually using the camera.

• Do not expose the battery to water. The battery is not

water-resistant.
