Power Supply
• Use only the special NP-40 rechargeable lithium ion battery to power this camera. Use of any other type of battery is not
supported.
• This camera does not have a separate battery for the clock. The date and time settings of the camera are cleared
whenever power is totally cut off (from both the battery and AC adaptor). Be sure to reconfigure these settings after
power is interrupted.
LCD Panel
• The LCD panel is a product of the latest LCD manufacturing technology that provides a pixel yield of 99.99%. This means
that less than 0.01% of the total pixels are defective (they do not turn on or always remain turned on).
Lens
• You may sometimes notice some distortion in certain types of images, such as a slight bend in lines that should be
straight. This is due to the characteristics of lens, and does not indicate malfunction of the camera.
