Checking Batteries

So that you are never caught with dead batteries, your camera indicates the power level of the batteries, in the form of a battery status symbol, on the Status Display when you turn on the camera.

For information on guidelines for battery usage, see Using Your Batteries.

  1. Set the Mode dial to Capture, Review, or Camera Settings.

    The battery status symbol is not visible if you set the camera to Connect.

  2. Slide the POWER switch to the right to turn on the camera.


  1. Check the battery status symbol that appears in the Status Display.
  • Full (No Icon)--indicates that batteries are charged and ready to use.

  • Low--indicates batteries are not fully charged and will soon need to be replaced or recharged.

  • Exhausted (blinking)--indicates batteries are too weak to power the camera and need to be replaced.
