provide powerfrom an AC outlet
or
charge a battery pack
Notes:
• The power adapter converts current from a household power socket (100–240 VAC, 50–60 Hz) to the
DC current used by your camera.
• If the adapter is used next to a TV, it may cause the TVto emit noise — move the adapter away from
the TVor the antenna cable.
