To ensure that the camera functions as expected when the optional MB-D11 battery
pack is used with AA batteries, match the option selected in this menu to the type of

Using AA Batteries
The MB-D11 takes one EN-EL15 rechargeable Li-ion battery or six AA alkaline, Ni-MH, or
lithium batteries (an EN-EL15 is supplied with the camera; AA batteries are available
separately). Fewer pictures can be taken with AA batteries (0 321). The capacity of AA
batteries drops sharply at temperatures below 20 °C (68 °F) and varies with make and
storage conditions; in some cases, batteries may cease to function before their expiry date.
Some AA batteries can not be used; due to their performance characteristics and limited
capacity, alkaline batteries should only be used if no alternative is available and then only at
warmer temperatures. The camera shows the level of AA batteries as follows:
