! Depending on the camera mode and the type of batteries used, the transition from “C” to “V” may occur more quickly.

! Due to the nature of the battery, the battery level warning may appear early when the camera is used in cold locations. This is normal. Try warming the batteries in your pocket or a similar location before use.

Battery level warning

1)The camera’s estimation of the remaining battery charge varies greatly depending on the camera operation mode. Consequently, even if “C” or “V” is not displayed in Playback mode, one of them may appear when you change to Photography mode.

2)Depending on the battery type and the level of charge in the batteries, the camera may run out of power without first displaying a battery level warning. This is particularly likely to happen when batteries that have run out of charge once are re-used.

In situation 2), immediately load new or fully charged replacement batteries.

Auto power off function

If the camera is left unused for 2 or 5 minutes, the Auto power off function turns the camera off (P.104). To turn the camera back on, set the Power switch to “OFF” briefly and then back to “q” or “w”.
