Inserting Batteries

The MB-D80 can be used with one or two EN-EL3e rechargeable Li-ion batteries, or with six AA batteries inserted in the MS-D200 battery holder.

Before inserting batteries, be sure that the camera is off and that the MB-D80 control lock is in the L position.

1 Turn the battery-chamber latch on the back of the MB-D80 toand open the battery-chamber cover (Figure F).

2 Insert the batteries.

EN-EL3e: Insert the batteries as shown on the inside of the battery chamber cover. The battery latch will slide aside during insertion and pop up to lock the battery in place when fully inserted (Figure G). If only one battery is used, it may be inserted into either slot.

AA: Place six AA batteries in the MS-D200 as shown below and slide the holder into the battery chamber. The two battery latches (Figure H- ) will slide aside during insertion (Figure H- ) and pop up to lock the battery holder in place when fully inserted.

EN-EL3e batteries are used, battery level can

 

also be verifi ed by means of the Battery info

 

option in the camera setup menu.

 

Using an AC Adapter

If the MB-D80 is inserted in the camera, be sure to remove AA batteries before connecting an AC adapter. Failure to observe this precaution may shorten the life of AA batteries.

Use EN-EL3e batteries if possible. AA batteries have less capacity and suffer a marked drop in performance at low temperatures.

When using AA batteries, note that all six bat- teries must be of the same type.

Note that the MB-D80 can also be inserted in the camera after the battery or battery holder is inserted.
