•These figures are based on PENTAX measuring conditions. Results may vary depending on the capture mode and shooting conditions.

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

•Due to the characteristics of AA alkaline batteries, camera performance may deteriorate at low temperatures. Use of other batteries (such as CR-V3) is recommended when using the camera at low temperatures.

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

•You can maximize battery life by turning off the LCD monitor, and using the viewfinder to take pictures.
