The picture storage capacity (normal recording and flash use 50%) is based on measuring conditions in accordance with CIPA standards and the others are based on PENTAX measuring conditions. Some deviation from the above figures may occur in actual use depending on shooting mode and shooting conditions.

•Battery performance temporarily decreases as the temperature decreases. When using the camera in cold climates, have extra batteries on hand and keep them warm in your pocket. Battery performance will return to normal when returned to room temperature.

•AA alkaline batteries may not support all the camera functions. We do not recommend their use except in emergencies and checking the camera's functionality.

•Have extra batteries ready when traveling overseas, taking pictures in cold climates, or when you will be taking a lot of pictures.
