Battery life depends significantly on age, usage conditions , type, and brand . In genera l, dig-
ital cameras are very demanding on batteries.
In Kodak lab tests, Ni-MH rechargeable batteries delivered the best results in a variety of
conditions. Ni-MH batteries are designed for high-deman d dev ices lik e digital cam eras, and
they do not exhibit the memory effects seen with other rechargeab le technologies.
If you use alkaline batteries in your camera, obtain “photo-flash grade” alkaline batteries.
These types of batteries last more than twice as long in digital cameras as ordinary alkaline
batteries.
Ni-Cd batteries work well in digital cameras, but they typically provide the shortest duty
cycle (usable power) between charges.
Lithium batteries typically provide the longes t overall battery life, but they carry a higher
cost-per-picture than other nonrechargeable battery types.
While using your batteries, observe the following guidelines:
Always follow your batter y manufacturer’s dire ctions fully.
Replace the batteries when they are low . Oth erwise, the camera ma y shut do wn with
its lens extended.
Limit continuous LCD preview or review operations to less than 20 minutes per ses-
sion. If you anticipate using your camera for longer periods in these modes, Kodak
recommends that you use the AC adapter with the camera.
Dispose of batteries according to federal and local regulations.
