■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 62 for more information.

•Enable the Auto Power Off and the Sleep features (page 44) to protect against wasting battery power when you forget to turn off the camera.
