T
he
ready-light will light up when the S8-16
is
recycled to approx. 80%
full capacity. Therefore, it
is
a good idea to wait for a few more seconds
when shooting subjects located at the far limit of the auto shooti
ng
range.
3)
With
alkaline-manganese batteries, if the ready-light takes more than
30sec. to light up, you should replace the batteries with a fresh s
et.
4)
The
voltage
of
Ni
Cd
batteries decreases rapidly when their power
is
almost exhausted, increasing the
re
cycling time.
When
this occur

stop us
