However, the duration for using batteries varies inaccordance with the battery manufacturer or the photographic conditions.When the camera is not used, turn off the camera power.Do not recharge the non rechargeable batteries. It may cause an explosion.Please remove the batteries if the camera will not be used for long periods.Batteries can lose power over time and are prone to leaking if kept inside the camera.We recommend high capacity ALKALINE batteries as manganese batteries cannotdeliver sufficient power.Low temperatures (below 0 ) can affect the performance of the batteries and you mayexperience reduced battery life.Batteries will usually recover at normal temperatures.Do not use old and new batteries at the same time.During extended use of the camera, the camera body may become warm. This is perfectly normal.Always turn off the power before taking the AC adapter out of the mains supply.As with all mains powered devices, safety is important. Ensure that neither the cameranor adapter comes into contact with water or metallic materials.Please ensure that you use an AC adapter (3.3V 2.0A) with the correct specification forthe camera. Failure to do so may affect your warranty.INFORMATIONDANGERIf you have access to a mains supply, using an ACAdapter (3.3V 2.0A) allows the camera to be used forlong periods of time.Plug the adapter into the connection point (DC IN 3.3V) on the camera.Remove the batteries from the camera when using anAC adapter.Using the AC power adapter (3.3V 2.0A)

25Things to Watch Out for When Taking PicturesThe available recording time may vary depending on shooting conditions and camerasettings.When the Flash Off or Slow synchro mode is selected in a low lighting condition, the camerashake warning indicator ( ) may appear on the LCD monitor. In this case, use a tripod,support the camera on a solid surface or change the flash mode to flash shot mode.Backlight compensated shots : When taking an outdoor shot, avoid facing the sun, as theimage may be dark because of the strong backlight. In backlight conditions, please use Fill-in flash(p.31), Spotmetering(p.42) or Exposure compensation(p.36).Avoid obstructing the lens or the flash when you capture an image.As there can be some differences between what is seen through the Viewfinder and theresulting image when taken at a range closer than 1.5m, it is recommended that you use theLCD monitor to compose these shots.Using the LCD monitor extensively will drain the batteries. We recommend turning off the LCD monitor and using the optical viewfinder as often aspossible in order to extend battery life.Under certain conditions the auto focus system may not perform as expected.- When photographing a subject that has little contrast.- If the subject is highly reflective or shiny.- If the subject is moving at high speed.- When there is strong reflected light, or when the background is very bright.- When the subject matter has only horizontal lines or the subject is very narrow (such as a stick or flagpole).- When the surroundings are dark.Pressing the shutter button down half way.
