Preparing for Shooting
• Press the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover latch release (1) and
rotate the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover latch (2) to open the
cover (3).
• With the battery’s positive and negative terminals oriented correctly, move
the orange battery latch (4), and fully insert the battery (5).
• Slide the memory card in until it clicks into place (6).
• Be careful not to insert the battery or memory card upside-down or
backward, as this could cause a malfunction.
• Close the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover (7) and, while pressing
it firmly against the camera so that the red portion on the side of the cover is
hidden, rotate the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover latch until it
clicks into place (8).
Make sure that the cover is securely locked.
B Formatting a Memory Card
The first time you insert a memory card that has been used in another device into
this camera, make sure to format it with this camera. Insert the memory card into the
camera, press the d button, and select Format card in the setup menu (A78).
B Notes About Closing the Cover without Getting the Camera Strap
or Cord Caught
If the camera strap’s cord gets caught in the battery-chamber/memory card slot
cover when it is closed, the cover could be damaged. Before closing the battery-
chamber/memory card slot cover, make sure that the strap or cord does not get
caught in it.
