Installing the Batteries

1 With the front of the camera facing you, open the battery door on the bottom of the camera by sliding the latch to the “unlock” ( ) position and pulling the door toward you.

2Insert the batteries as indicated inside the door.

3 Close the battery door by pushing the door toward the back of the camera and sliding the latch to the “lock” ( ) position.

NOTE Digital cameras use batteries at a much faster rate than film cameras.

Battery life in digital cameras can be measured in minutes and hours of use

rather than the years more typical of film cameras. Battery life may vary dramatically from one user to another, depending on what modes the camera is being used in most frequently. Battery life will also vary dramatically depending upon the type of batteries installed in the camera. For hints on optimizing battery performance, see Managing Batteries on page 121.
