Upgrading your software and firmware
Download the latest versions of KODAK Software and the camera firmware (the
software that runs on the camera). Check occasionally at
www.kodak.com/go/z981downloads.
Storage capacities
The LCD displays the approximate number of pictures (or minutes/seconds of video)
remaining. For average SD Card capacities, go to www.kodak.com/go/SDcapacities.
Actual storage capacity varies depending on subject composition, card size, and other
factors. You may be able to store more or fewer pictures and videos.
Battery replacement, battery life
KODAK Ni-MH Pre-Charged Rechargeable Batteries AA (2100 mAh): 450–500
pictures. Battery life per CIPA testing method using 128 MB SD Card. Approximate
number of pictures in Smart Capture mode. Actual life may vary based on usage.
Extending battery life
■ Use the EVF instead of the LCD (see page 8). Use a power-saving LCD Brightness
setting (see page 44).
■ Charge the batteries when necessary.
■ Dirt on the battery contacts can affect battery life. Wipe the contacts with a clean,
dry cloth before loading the batteries in the camera.
■ Battery performance is reduced at temperatures below 41° F (5° C). When using
your camera in cold weather, carry spare batteries and keep them warm. Do not
discard cold batteries that do not work; when they return to room temperature,
they may be usable.
