Chapter 11 Using Your Batteries m Replacement Types-your camera can use the following battery types: - 2, 1.5 volt AA lithium batteries - 1, KODAK Lithium Battery KCRV3 * - 1, KODAK Ni-MH Rechargeable Battery Pack, rechargeable in the Camera Dock * - 2, 1.2 volt AA Nickel Metal Hydride (Ni-MH) batteries, rechargeable * * These batteries can be purchased by visiting our Web site at http://www.kodak.com/go/accessories. For acceptable battery life, and to make sure your camera operates dependably, we do not recommend or support alkaline batteries. m To lengthen battery life, limit the following activities: - Using Preview (using the LCD as the viewfinder, see page 19) - Reviewing your pictures on the LCD (see page 31) - Taking videos (videos use more battery power than still pictures) - Excessive use of the flash m When using rechargeable batteries, do not exceed the mAH capacity of your battery charger. m NOT ALL BATTERIES ARE CREATED EQUAL! Battery life depends significantly on age, usage conditions, type, brand, and camera. Digital camera requirements are very demanding on batteries. Not all batteries perform well under these challenging conditions. In Kodak lab tests, Nickel Metal Hydride (Ni-MH) rechargeable batteries delivered the best results in a variety of conditions. Ni-MH batteries are designed for high-demand devices, like digital cameras, and do not exhibit the "memory" effects seen with other rechargeable technologies. m Battery performance is reduced at temperatures below 41 °F (5 °C). Carry spare batteries when using your camera in cold weather, and keep them warm until you are ready to take pictures. Do not discard cold batteries that do not work. Once they are warmed, they may be usable. 81
