I Battery Life Guidelines
The battery life guideline values given below indicate the amount of time under the conditions defined below the table, until power automatically turns off due to battery failure. They do not guarantee that the battery will provide the amount of service indicated. Low temperatures and continued use reduce battery life.
Operation Number of Shots (CIPA Standard)*1 (Operating Time) Number of Shots, Continuous Recording*2 (Operating Time) Continuous Snapshot Playback*3 Continuous Voice Recording*4 Apporoximate Battery Life 400 shots (200 minutes) 1070 shots (210 minutes) 410 minutes 380 minutes
Supported Battery: NP-40 (Rated Capacitance: 1230mAh) Storage Medium: SD Memory Card *1 Number of Shots (CIPA Standard) Temperature: 23C (73F) Monitor Screen: On Zoom operation between full wide to full telephoto every 30 seconds, during which two images are recorded, one image with flash; power turned off and back on every time 10 images are recorded. *2 Continuous Recording Conditions Temperature: 23C (73F) Monitor screen: On Flash: Off Image recorded every 12 seconds, alternating full wide-angle and full telephoto zoom *3 Continuous Snapshot Playback Conditions Temperature: 23C (73F) Scroll one image about every 10 seconds *4 Voice recording times are based on continuous recording.
GETTING READY The above values are based on a new battery starting from a full charge. Repeated charging shortens battery life. Battery life is greatly affected by how much you use flash, zoom and other functions, and how long you leave power turned on.

I Low Battery Indicator

The following shows how the battery capacity indicator on the monitor screen changes as battery power is used. The indicator means that remaining battery power is low. Note that you will not be able to record images while the battery indicator is. Charge the battery immediately whenever either of these indicators appears.

2. Record the image.

The focus and image recording operations are identical to those in the Auto Focus mode. NOTE When the Macro mode cannot focus properly because the subject is too far away, the camera automatically switches to the Auto Focus range (page 69). Whenever you perform an optical zoom operation (page 55) while recording with the Macro mode, a value will appear on the monitor screen as shown below to tell you the focusing range. Example: 10cm - 50cm
OTHER RECORDING FUNCTIONS IMPORTANT! Use of the flash along with wide angle zoom or the Macro mode can cause the light of the flash to become blocked, which can produce unwanted shadows in your image.

Using Pan Focus

Normally, your camera performs Auto Focus to ensure that your images are always in focus. Selecting Pan Focus disables Auto Focus, so the shutter is released as soon as you press the shutter button. This mode is best for basic snapshots. The focus range depends on the zoom setting, the amount of light available when recording, and other recording conditions.
