Notes on Handling Batteries
◆
h Do not use different types of batteries or old
and new batteries together.
h The operating lives of alkaline batteries vary
between brands and the life of the batteries
may be shorter than the alkaline batteries
provided with the camera. Note also that due to
the nature of alkaline batteries, the time for
which they can be used is shorter in cold
locations (at temperatures of +10°C or below),
so the use of Ni-MH batteries is recommended.
h Soiling (fingerprints, etc) on the terminals of
batteries can greatly reduce the time for
which the batteries provide power.
h You will need the optional battery charger
(➡P.75) to recharge Ni-MH batteries.
h See P.78 for notes on using batteries.
