which you will use the camera.
A.

Indoors.

Connect the camera to the AC battery charger/adapter as
described in Chapter 4; leave it connected while you operate the
camera. The camera will be ready for operation almost immedi-
ately. However, if you are beginning with a dead battery, and
notice unusual behavior, you may need to wait for approximately
three minutes before using the camera.
NOTE: The adapter supplies enough power to support operation of the
camera as well as to continue charging the camera battery. Once the
battery is fully charged, the AC battery charger/adapter automatically
switches to a slow trickle charge.
