Power Saving Function
(Auto Power Down)
To save battery power, the camera shuts down automatically when it is not
operated for a certain time.
Power Saving during Shooting
The screen will turn off approximately 1 minute after the camera is last
operated. After about 2 more minutes, the lens will retract and the power will
turn off. When the screen has turned off but the lens has not yet retracted,
pressing the shutter button halfway (p. 23) turns on the screen and shooting
can continue.
Power Saving during Playback
The power will turn off approximately 5 minutes after the camera is last
operated.
