unscrewing it as shown by the arrow.

when loading the batteries.

When changing batteries; be sure to load new
batteries of the same brand and same kind at the
same time. Please be careful when loading them

shortened so please take extra batteries with
you. The batteries must be kept warm before
shooting in such places. When you shoot in tem-
peratures below QOC, Ni-Cd batteries are highly
recommended. When not using the camera for a
