What is an "InfoLITHIUM" battery pack? An "InfoLITHIUM" battery pack is a lithium-ion battery pack that has functions for exchanging information related to operating conditions with your camera. Notes • The displayed level may not be correct under certain circumstances. • Do not expose the battery pack to water. The battery pack is not water-resistant. • Do not leave the battery pack in extremely hot places, such as in a car or under direct sunlight. Available battery packs Only an NP-FH50 battery pack can be used with the camera. Note that the NP-FH30 and NP-FH40 cannot be used. Effective use of the battery pack • Battery performance decreases in low temperature surroundings. So, the time that the battery pack can be used is shorter in cold places and the speed of continuous shooting slows down. We recommend that you put the battery pack in a pocket close to your body to warm it up, and insert it in your camera immediately before you start shooting. • The battery pack will run out quickly if you use the flash frequently, use continuous shooting often, or turn the camera on and off frequently. Battery life • The battery life is limited. Battery capacity decreases little by little as you use it more and more, and as time passes. If the battery operating time seems shortened considerably, a probable cause is that the battery pack has reached the end of its life. Buy a new battery pack. • The battery life varies according to how it is stored and the operating conditions and environment in which each battery pack is used. 16
