Getting Ready
Charging the battery
◆
When you try to charge the battery immediately after the camera has been used continuously for a long
period (e.g. shooting a movie or connected to a PC), charging may not begin soon (the self-timer lamp
does not light).
This is not a camera fault, but is for protecting the battery from being charged while it is warm. Battery
may degrade when charged at high temperatures.
Leave the camera connected to the AC power adapter, and charging will automatically begin within 30
minutes.

or may remain the same. For this reason, the number displayed may not show the actual number of frames.

Red-eye effect
◆
When using the flash to take a picture of people in low-light conditions, their eyes sometimes
appear red in the picture. This is caused by the light of the flash reflecting off the inside of the eye.
Use Red-eye reduction flash to minimize the likelihood of this effect.
Take the following measures to make Red-eye reduction more effective:
h Get the subjects to look at the camera. h Get as close as possible to the subjects.
