Step 1 Turn the Camera On
The Basics of Shooting and Playback
Turning the Camera On and Off
When the camera is turned on, the power-on lamp (green) lights and the
monitor is turned on (the power-on lamp turns off when the monitor is turned
on).
If the power switch is pressed while the monitor is closed with the screen facing
inward, the power-on lamp (green) and viewfinder will light.
To turn off the camera, press the power switch. Both the monitor and the
power-on lamp are turned off.
To turn on the camera in playback mode, press and hold the c (playback)
button. At this time, the lens does not extend.
When Record GPS data in GPS options of the GPS options menu is set to On,
GPS functions will continue to operate even after the camera is turned off
(A99).
C Power Saving Function (Auto Off)
If no operations are performed for a while, the monitor will turn off, the camera will enter standby
mode, and the power-on lamp will flash. If no operations are performed for another 3 minutes, the
camera will turn off automatically.
To turn on the monitor again in standby mode, perform either one of the following operations.
- Press the power switch, shutter-release button, c button, or b (e movie-record) button.
- Rotate the mode dial.
The time that elapses before the camera enters standby mode can be changed using the Auto off
setting in the setup menu (A103).
By default, the camera enters standby mode in about 1 minute when you are using shooting
mode or playback mode.
If you are using the AC Adapter EH-62A (available separately), the camera enters standby mode
after 30 minutes. This setting cannot be changed.
C Note on Battery Drain
Battery power drains faster than usual while the camera is recording log data (A102) or using a
Wi-Fi connection.
C Monitor Display
Press the s button to switch between showing and hiding the photo information or shooting
information that is displayed on the monitor screen (A9).
