Step 2—Insert the Battery and Memory Card

Your camera is powered by a rechargeable Nikon EN-EL2 lithium-ion battery, which can be charged using the MH-60 battery charger provided with the camera. To store pictures, your camera uses CompactFlash™ memory cards.

2.1 Charge the battery

The EN-EL2 lithium-ion battery supplied with your camera is not fully charged at shipment. We recommend that you charge the battery be- fore use. Instructions for charging the battery may be found in the instruction manual included with the battery charger.

Alternative Power Sources

To power your camera continuously for extended playback or while the cam- era is connected to a computer, we recommend the EH-60/EH-60S AC adapter kit (available separately; 87).
