teries are low or if the CompactFlash Card becomes

• If the CompactFlash card in the camera has a large
number of files on it, it may take quite a bit of time for
the camera to generate the required HTML files and
actually turn off after you slide the POWER/Function
switch towards OFF.
Because of this, we recommend that you normally
leave Card Browser turned off, except when you actu-
ally want to generate HTML files.
