may become impossible to recharge.

switch is ON.
Turn the POWER switch OFF and make sure that
the mode lamp is completely off before removing
the battery.
Protect the battery terminals.
Do not allow dust or foreign substances to cling to
the battery terminals.
If you accidentally drop the battery, check the body

Inserting a deformed battery into the camera or
the AC adaptor (battery charger) may damage the
camera or the AC adaptor (battery charger).

Liquid crystal displays
• Images or characters can linger on the screen of
the LCD or viewfinder if they are left displayed
for a long time, but you can fix this by leaving the
camera off for several hours.
• The LCD monitor is managed with high precision
to ensure that 99.99% of the pixels are effective
leaving only 0.01% of pixels that are either dead
or remain on all the time. This is normal and will
have no effect on recorded images.
• Dew may form on the LCD monitor if you use
the camera in locations of intensely varying
temperatures. Wipe it dry with a soft, dry cloth.
• The LCD monitor may appear a little dimmer right
after turning on a cold camera. The brightness will
go back to normal when the internal temperature
increases.
Do not point the eyepiece of the lens or
viewfinder at the sun.
Doing so may damage the internal parts.
Protective caps for the terminals
Keep protective caps fitted over connecting
terminals that are not being used.
Mosaic-like noise may appear on the playback
images in the following shooting conditions.
• When there is a complex pattern in the
background
• When moving the camera a long distance or
moving quickly
• When the subject is moving quickly
(Especially when shooting in HE mode)
Depending on the signal reading system of the
pickup devices (MOS sensor), the following
problems may occur.
• A subject that quickly crosses the screen may
appear distorted in some shooting conditions.
• When a subject is lit by the flash, the screen may
appear split horizontally.
(The possibility of the occurrence may be
reduced by setting the shutter speed lower.)
