Extending battery life
zMinimize the use of Live View and video, especially when using alkaline batteries.
zUse the viewfinder to frame pictures instead of the Image Display. Leave the Image Display off whenever possible.
zUse the Auto flash setting rather than Flash On.
zUse an optional HP AC adapter or HP 8886 camera dock when the camera will be on for extended periods of time, or when unloading pictures to your computer, printing, or connecting to the TV.
Power conservation
The camera will conserve battery power by turning off the Image Display automatically if there is no button activity for 60 seconds. If no buttons are pressed for 5 minutes, the camera turns off (unless it is printing or connected to a computer or TV).
