1 GettingStarted

•Always charge the battery before using the camera for the first time or when the battery has not been used for a long time.

•Do not use the battery charger D-BC8 to charge batteries other than D-LI8 rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, as the charger may overheat or be damaged as a result.

•If the battery is inserted correctly but the charging indicator blinks, the battery may be faulty. Replace with a new battery.

•Approximate Operating Time (when the D-LI8 battery is fully charged)

Number of recordable images: Approx. 180 (at 23°C with the LCD

 

monitor on and the flash used for 50% of

 

shots)

Playback time:

Approx. 150 min.

Movie recording time:

Approx. 70 min.

Sound recording time:

Approx. 250 min.

•The number of recordable images are based on CIPA standard measurement and may vary depending on capture mode and shooting conditions.

•In general, battery performance temporarily deteriorates as the temperature decreases. When using the camera in a cold environment, keep it warm by putting it in your pocket or inside your coat. Battery performance that has deteriorated due to low temperature will be restored when the battery is returned to room temperature.

•Be sure to take a spare battery with you when traveling abroad or to a cold region, or if you intend to take a lot of pictures.

• Battery Level Indicator

You can check the battery level by the symbol on the LCD monitor.
