Notes About the Monitor
Monitors and electronic viewfinders are constructed with extremely high precision;
at least 99.99% of pixels are effective, with no more than 0.01% being missing or
defective. Hence while these displays may contain pixels that are always lit (white,
red, blue, or green) or always off (black), this is not a malfunction and has no effect
on images recorded with the device.
Images in the monitor may be difficult to see under bright lighting.
Do not apply pressure to the monitor, as this could cause damage or malfunction.
Should the monitor break, care should be taken to avoid injury caused by broken
glass and to prevent the liquid crystal from the display touching the skin or
entering the eyes or mouth.
Notes About Smear
White or colored streaks may be visible when bright subjects are framed in the monitor.
This phenomenon, known as "smear," occurs when extremely bright light strikes the
image sensor; it is characteristic of image sensors and does not indicate a malfunction.
Smear may also take the form of partial discoloration in the monitor during shooting.
It does not appear in images saved with the camera except in the case of movies.
When shooting movies, we recommend that you avoid bright subjects such as the
sun, reflected sunlight, and electric lights.
Batteries
Precautions for Use
Note that the batteries may become hot after use.
Do not use batteries beyond their recommended expiration date.
Do not turn the camera on and off repeatedly if discharged batteries are inserted in
the camera.
Carrying Spare Batteries
We recommend carrying spare batteries depending on where you are shooting. It
may be difficult to purchase batteries in certain areas.
Charging Batteries
If using optional rechargeable batteries, charge the batteries before taking pictures.
Batteries are not fully charged at the time of purchase.
Be sure to read and follow the warnings noted in the operating instructions included
with the battery charger.
Charging Rechargeable Batteries
Do not mix batteries with different amounts of charge remaining, or batteries of a
different make or model.
When using EN-MH2 batteries with this camera, charge four batteries at a time using
Battery Charger MH-73. Use only Battery Charger MH-73 to charge EN-MH2 batteries.
When using Battery Charger MH-73, only charge EN-MH2 batteries.
EN-MH1 rechargeable Ni-MH batteries cannot be used.
