BATTERY CONDITION INDICATOR
Full-battery – the batteries are fully charged. This icon is displayed for
five seconds on the monitors when the camera is turned on. The icon
remains on the data panel.
Blinking low battery warning – displayed on the data panel with no
other icons. Power is insufficient for camera operation. The shutter will
not release. Replace or recharge the batteries immediately.
Low battery warning – battery power is very low, but all functions are
operational. The batteries should be replaced as soon as possible. This
warning automatically appears and remains on the display until the bat-
teries are changed.
AUTO POWER SAVE
To conserve battery power, the camera will turn off displays and unnecessary functions if an opera-
tion is not made within a certain period. The LCD monitor will turn off after thirty seconds. The EVF
and data panel turn off after one minute. To restore the displays, press the shutter-release button
partway down or press the display-information button. The length of the auto-power-save period for
the EVF and data panel can be changed in the custom 2 section of the setup menu (p. 124).
This camera is equipped with an automatic battery-condition indicator. When the camera is on, the
battery-condition indicator appears on the data panel and monitors. The monitor icon will change
from white to red when battery power is low. If the data panel and monitors are blank, the batteries
may be dead or installed incorrectly.
