.

For acceptable battery life, and to make sure your camera operates
dependably, we do not recommend or support alkaline batteries.

m

To lengthen battery life, limit the following activities:

– Using Liveview (using the LCD as the viewfinder, see

page 18

)

– Reviewing your pictures on the LCD (see

page 35

)

– Excessive use of the flash

m

Dirt on the battery contacts can affect battery life. Wipe the contacts with a
clean, dry cloth before loading batteries in the camera.

m

Battery life depends significantly on battery age, usage conditions, type, and
brand. Digital camera requirements are very demanding on batteries. Not
all batteries perform well under these challenging conditions. For a
comparison of different battery types, refer to the Battery Option sheet.

m

Battery performance is reduced at temperatures below 41

°

F (5

°

C).

Carry spare batteries when using your camera in cold weather, and keep
them warm until you are ready to take pictures. Do not discard cold
batteries that do not work. When they return to room temperature, they
may be usable.

m

Do not allow batteries to touch metal objects, including coins. Otherwise, a
battery may short circuit, discharge energy, become hot, or leak.
