Inserting the Battery and Memory Cards

The camera is equipped with two memory card slots: a slot that takes one SD memory card (q) and another that takes one microSD memory card (w), for a total of two cards, one of each type.

  • Turn the camera off before inserting or removing the battery or memory cards.
  • Holding the memory card in the orientation shown, slide it straight into the slot until it clicks into place.
  • If you are using a microSD memory card, we recommend that you insert it before inserting the battery.
  • Using the battery to keep the orange battery latch pressed to one side, slide the battery into the battery chamber until the latch locks it in place.

Removing the Battery

To remove the battery, turn the camera off and open the battery chamber/memory card slot cover. Press the battery latch in the direction shown by the arrow to release the battery and then remove the battery by hand.

Removing Memory Cards

Before removing the memory cards, confirm that the memory card access lamp is off and then turn the camera off and open the battery chamber/memory card slot cover. Press the card in to eject it (q) and then slide it from the camera (w).

  • We recommend that you remove the battery before removing microSD memory cards.

Battery Level

  • The battery level is shown in the shooting display while the camera is on.

  • The battery level display changes as the battery level diminishes, from L through K to H. When the battery level falls to H, suspend shooting and charge the battery or ready a spare battery.
  • If the message [Shutter release disabled. Recharge battery.] is displayed, charge or exchange the battery.

The Standby Timer

The camera uses a standby timer to help reduce the drain on the battery. If no operations are performed for about 30 seconds, the standby timer will expire and the monitor, viewfinder, and control panel will turn off. A few seconds prior to turning off, the monitor and viewfinder will dim. They can be reactivated by pressing the shutter-release button halfway. The length of time before the standby timer expires automatically can be selected using Custom Setting c3 [Power off delay] > [Standby timer].

Number of Exposures Remaining

  • When you turn the camera on, the shooting display will show the number of photographs that can be taken at current settings.
  • Values over 1000 are rounded down to the nearest hundred. For example, values between 1500 and 1599 are shown as 1.5 k.

The Write Protect Switch

  • SD memory cards are equipped with a write-protect switch. Sliding the switch to the “lock” position write-protects the card, protecting the data it contains.

  • A “– – –” indicator and a [Card] warning appear in the shooting display when a write-protected card is inserted.
  • If you attempt to release the shutter while a write-protected card is inserted, a warning will be displayed and no picture will be recorded. Unlock the memory card before attempting to take or delete pictures.

Slot Icons

The location of the current picture is shown by an icon at the bottom left corner of the playback display.
