the flash, turning the power on/off frequently, or using the zoom.
• The numbers of images shown on tables above are as a guide. The numbers may be smaller
depending on conditions.
• If sufficient battery remaining time is indicated but the power runs out soon, fully charge the
battery so that the correct battery remaining time appears.
• Do not short the DC plug of the AC power adaptor with a metallic object, as this may cause a
malfunction.
