Notes on Using Batteries
Power save mode
When operating the camera with size AA alkaline batteries, set POWER SAVE in the SET UP screen to ON. This increases the battery efficiency and life when recording still images. When POWER SAVE is ON � The LCD screen turns off while the flash is charging (while the /CHG lamp is flashing). When the camera is turned on for the first time after being left unused for a long period of time, the flash will take longer than usual to charge. � The time from when you press the shutter button until the image is recorded is slightly longer than when POWER SAVE is OFF. � The focus is only aligned when the shutter button is depressed halfway, even when auto focusing is activated. Power save mode � The factory setting is ON (page 70). � Power save mode is also effective when using an �InfoLITHIUM� battery pack (NP-FS11, not supplied), but in this case recording can be performed more comfortably by setting POWER SAVE in the SET UP screen to OFF.

� Remove the batteries when you will not be using the camera for a long time. � Do not disassemble batteries, short the terminals with metallic objects, or place batteries in or near heat sources. � Be sure to replace both batteries at the same time. In addition, do not mix new and old batteries or different types of batteries such as alkaline and nickel metal hydride batteries.

Batteries that can be used
� �InfoLITHIUM� battery pack (NP-FS11) (recommended, not supplied) � Size AA alkaline batteries (2) � Size AA nickel metal hydride batteries (2) (not supplied) � Size AA nickel-cadmium batteries (2) (not supplied)
Notes
� When using size AA alkaline batteries, we recommend Sony Stamina alkaline batteries. Other batteries may not bring out the full performance of the camera. � When using the camera in low temperature environments, use the �InfoLITHIUM� battery pack (NP-FS11, not supplied). The performance of alkaline batteries drops significantly at low temperatures, making use impossible. � Nickel metal hydride batteries and nickelcadmium batteries can be used, but the battery remaining time may not be displayed correctly. � Manganese and primary lithium batteries cannot be used with the camera.

Handling precautions for size AA batteries
� The batteries may be hot immediately after using the camera. Wait until the batteries have cooled before removing them.
