Using Your Batteries

mReplacement Types—your camera can use the following battery types:

2, 1.5 volt AA lithium batteries

1, KODAK CRV3 Lithium Battery *

1, KODAK EASYSHARE Ni-MH Rechargeable Battery Pack, rechargeable in the KODAK EASYSHARE Camera Docks *

2, 1.2 volt AA Nickel Metal Hydride (Ni-MH) batteries, rechargeable *

*Purchase these batteries on our Web site at http://www.kodak.com/go/ accessories.

For acceptable battery life, and to make sure your camera operates dependably, we do not recommend or support alkaline batteries.

mTo lengthen battery life, limit the following activities:

Using Liveview (using the LCD as the viewfinder, see page 14)

Reviewing your pictures on the LCD (see page 25)

Excessive use of the flash

mNOT ALL BATTERIES ARE CREATED EQUAL! Battery life depends significantly on battery age, usage conditions, type, and brand. Digital camera requirements are very demanding on batteries. Not all batteries perform well under these challenging conditions. For a comparison of different battery types, refer to the Battery Option sheet that is included with your camera.

mBattery performance is reduced at temperatures below 41 °F (5 °C). Carry spare batteries when using your camera in cold weather, and keep them warm until you are ready to take pictures. Do not discard cold batteries that do not work. When they return to room temperature, they may

be usable.
