• If you do not operate the camera for given period of time, the camera turns to
power saving mode. To cancel the power save, operate the camera, such as
pressing the shutter button halfway down.
The charge lamp on the camera flashes when charging the battery
pack.
• You can use an NP-FW50 battery pack only. Make sure that the battery is
NP-FW50.
• If you charge a battery pack that has not been used for a long time, the charge
lamp may flash.
• The charge lamp flashes in two ways, fast (about 0.3-second intervals) and
slow (about 1.3-second intervals). If it is flashing fast, remove the battery
pack and reattach the same battery pack securely, or disconnect and
reconnect the USB cable. If the charge lamp flashes fast again, it suggests
that there is something wrong with the battery pack, AC Adaptor (supplied),
or USB cable. Slow flashing indicates that charging is suspended because the
ambient temperature is outside the suitable range for charging the battery
pack. Charging will resume and the charge lamp will be lit when the ambient
temperature returns to within the suitable temperature. Charge the battery
pack under the suitable temperatures between 10 °C and 30 °C (50 °F and
86 °F).
The battery has not been charged even if the charge lamp has
turned off.
• This phenomenon occurs when you use the camera in an extremely hot or
cold location. Charge the battery pack under the suitable temperatures
between 10 °C and 30 °C (50 °F and 86 °F).
The battery pack is not charged.
• When the battery pack is not charged (the charge lamp does not light) even if
you follow the proper charging procedure, remove the battery pack and re-
insert the same battery pack securely, or disconnect and reconnect the USB
cable.
