•Battery life is greatly affected by how much you use flash, zoom and other functions, and how long you leave power turned on.

■Tips to Make the Battery Last Longer

•If you do not need the flash while recording, select (flash off) for the flash mode. See page 71 for more information.

•Enable the Auto Power Off and the Sleep features (page 51) to protect against wasting battery power when you forget to turn off the camera.

•You can also conserve battery power by using the [DISP] button to turn off the monitor screen.
