Taking Pictures 2-17
Reading the Status Display Panel
When your camera dial is turned to , , or , the status
display panel (on the top of the camera) shows the camera’s
current settings and how many additional pictures you can
take.
Checking the Battery
When your battery power is almost out, the low battery
icon appears on the display panel; it flashes when your
battery power is too low to use the camera. You need to
recharge or replace your batteries or use the optional
universal AC adapter when you see this icon.
Although you may be able to use the camera with low
batteries, it needs full battery power to operate reliably.
NOTE
Several factors can affect battery life, including the
surrounding temperature and the type of batteries you use.
Low temperatures—especially below 50 °F (10 °C)—drain
batteries faster. See page 1-3 for battery use instructions.
