Notes on the Power Supply This is particularly true of alkaline batteries. In cold conditions, put the batteries in your pocket or a similar place to warm them before loading them into the camera. If you use a body warmer to warm the batteries, ensure that they are not in direct contact with the warmer. • Soil (such as fingerprints) on the battery terminals can markedly reduce the number of available frames. Carefully wipe the battery terminals clean with a soft dry cloth before loading the batteries.
Notes on the Media (xD-Picture CardTM and Microdrives) • Image Memory Card • This Image Memory Card is a new image recording media (xD-Picture Card) developed for digital cameras. The Image Memory Card consists of a semiconductor memory (NAND-type flash memory) to record digital image data.
