Connecting an AC Adapter
When using the camera for extended periods of time to shoot or playback
images, or connecting with a PC, connect an AC adapter (optional) to the
camera and power the camera from a household electrical source.
Using the AC Adapter
Before using the AC adapter, be sure to read the safety precautions in the
accompanying manual.
A
Check that the camera is turned off, and connect the AC adapter
connection cable to the power supply terminal (DC input) on the
camera.
See • P.24 “Turning On/Off the Camera”
B
Insert the power plug into the electrical outlet.
Note
• If the battery is loaded in the camera while it is connected to a
household power source, the camera is powered from the AC source
and not by the battery. If the AC adapter is to be used for a long time,
remove the battery.
Important
Note
• Insert the power plug and connection cable securely. If the plug or
cable works loose during recording, the data may be lost or damaged.
• If you connect or disconnect the AC adapter while operating the
camera (recording, playback, or erasing), the camera will switch off to
determine the power source. This may cause the data to be lost or
damaged. To avoid this, connect or disconnect the AC adapter while
the camera is turned off.
• When not using the camera for a long period of time, remove the AC
adapter from the camera and power source.
