EN-EL3e, EN-EL4a, and EN-EL4 Batteries
The performance of EN-EL3e, EN-EL4a, and EN-EL4 batteries drops at temperatures below about 10 °C
(50 °F). Be sure the battery is fully charged and keep a warm spare battery on hand ready to exchange
as necessary. Cold batteries will recover some of their charge when warmed.
AA Batteries
Due to their limited capacity, AA LR6 alkaline and ZR6 nickel-manganese batteries should be used
only when no other alternative is available. Use is not recommended at low temperatures. In gen-
eral, AA batteries have less capacity than other power sources when used in the MB-D10; EN-EL3e,
EN-EL4a, and EN-EL4 batteries are recommended for best performance.
The capacity of AA batteries varies with make and storage conditions and may in some instances be
extremely low; in some cases, AA batteries may cease to function before their expiry date. Note that
the capacity of AA batteries may drop at temperatures below 20 °C (68 °F).
Frame Advance Rate
EN-EL4a/EN-EL4 and AA batteries support higher frame advance rates than the EN-EL3e. For more
information on frame advance rates, see the camera manual.
