Attaching the Strap Attaching a Lens

1 Pass the end of the strap

through the strap lug and

Getting Started

secure it on the inside of the clasp.

2 Attach the other end in the same manner.

1 Make sure that the camera is turned off. 2 Remove the body mount

cover (1) and lens mount cover (2).

After removing the cover, be sure to put the lens down with the lens mount side facing upward.

3 Align the lens mount

indexes (red dots: 3) on the camera and the lens, and secure by turning the lens clockwise until it clicks.

To remove the lens

Battery charger Indicator lamp

AC plug cord

Attach the lens cap, and then turn the lens counterclockwise while pressing the lens unlock button (4).

Using the Battery and Charger

Use the battery D-LI109 and battery charger D-BC109 exclusively developed for this camera.

u Caution

• When attaching or removing the lens, cho ose an environment that is relatively free of dirt and dust.

• Keep the body mount cover attached on the camera when a lens is not attached.

• Be sure to attach the lens mount cover and lens cap to the lens after removing it from the camera.

• Do not insert your fingers inside the lens mount of the camera or touch the mirror.

• The camera body and lens mount incorporate lens information contacts. Dirt, dust, or corrosion may damage the electrical system. Please contact your nearest service center for professional cleaning.

• When a retractable lens is attached and is not extended, you cannot take pictures and use some functions. If the lens is retracted during shooting, the camera stops working. Refer to “How to Use a Retractable Lens” (p.40) for details.

• We assume no responsibility nor liability for accidents, damages and malfunctions resulting from the use of lenses made by other manufacturers.

t Memo

• Refer to “Functions Available with Various Lenses” (p.113) for details on the functions of each lens.

Charging the Battery

1 Connect the AC plug cord to the battery charger. 2 Plug the AC plug cord into the power outlet.

Getting Started

3 Face the A mark on the

battery up, and insert it into the battery charger.

Insert the battery into the battery charger at an angle, and then fit

Getting Started

into place. The indicator lamp is lit while charging and turns off when the battery is fully charged.

u Caution

• Do not use the battery charger D-BC109 to charge batteries other than the battery D-LI109. Charging other batteries may cause damage or heating.

• Replace the battery with a new one in the following cases:

• If the indicator lamp blinks or does not light after the battery

is inserted correctly

• If the battery starts to run down more quickly even after

being charged (the battery may have reached the end of its service life)

t Memo

• The maximum charging time is approximately 240 minutes (it depends on temperature and remaining battery power). Charge in a location where the temperature is between 0°C and 40°C (32°F and 104°F).

Inserting/Removing the Battery

u Caution

• Insert the battery correctly. If the battery is inserted incorrectly, it may not be removed.

• Wipe the electrodes of the battery with a soft dry cloth before inserting.

• Do not open the battery cover or remove the battery while the power is on.

• Be careful as the camera or battery may become hot after the camera has been used continuously for a long period of time.

• Remove the battery when you will not use the camera for a long time. The battery may leak and damage the camera if left installed during prolonged periods of non-use. If the removed battery will not be used for six months or longer, charge the battery for about 30 minutes before storing it. Be sure to recharge the battery every six to twelve months.

• Store the battery in a location where the temperature will remain at or below room temperature. Avoid locations with high temperatures.

• The date and time may be reset if you leave the battery out of the camera for long periods of time. If this happens, set the current date and time again.

1 Open the battery cover.

Slide the battery cover unlock lever (1) before opening the cover.

2 Face the A mark on the

battery towards the outside of the camera, and insert the battery until it locks into place.

To remove the battery, push the battery lock lever in the direction of 2.

3 Close the battery cover.

t Memo

• The battery level may not be displayed properly if the camera is used at low temperatures or when performing Continuous Shooting for a long time.

• Battery performance temporarily decreases as the temperature decreases. When using the camera in cold climates, have extra batteries at hand and keep them warm in your pocket. Battery performance will return to normal at room temperature.

• Have extra batteries ready when traveling overseas, or taking a lot of pictures.

Using the AC Adapter

We recommend the use of the optional AC adapter kit K-AC128 when using the monitor for a long time or when connecting the camera to a computer or AV device.

1 Make sure that the camera is turned off. 2 Open the battery cover.

Remove the battery if it is inserted in the camera.

3 Pull out the connection

cable cover on the right side of the battery chamber.

4 Insert the DC coupler into

the battery chamber.

5 Close the battery cover.

Make sure that the connection cable comes out from the connection cable opening.

Getting Started

Connect the DC coupler and the AC adapter.

Inserting a Memory Card

The following memory cards can be used with this camera.

• SD Memory Card

• SDHC Memory Card

• SDXC Memory Card In this manual, these cards are referred to as memory cards.

1 Make sure that the camera is turned off. 2 Slide the memory card

cover in the direction of 1 and then rotate it to open as shown by 2.

7 Connect the AC adapter to the AC plug cord, and

plug the cord into the power outlet.

u Caution

• Make sure that the camera is turned off before connecting or disconnecting the AC adapter.

• Make sure that connections are secure between the terminals. The memory card or data may be corrupted if the connection to the power supply is lost while the card is being accessed.

• After removing the DC coupler, return the connection cable cover to its original position.

• Be sure to read the manual of the AC adapter kit before using the AC adapter.

3 Insert the card all the way

into the memory card slot with the memory card label facing toward the side with the monitor.

Push the memory card in once and release to remove.

4 Rotate the memory card

How to Open the Monitor

The following procedure explains how to open the monitor with the LCD screen facing inward.

u Caution

• Do not remove the memory card while the card access lamp (orange) is lit.

• If the memory card cover is opened while the power is on, the camera turns off. Do not open the cover while the camera is in use.

• Use this camera to format (initialize) a memory card that is unused or has been previously used on other devices. (p.38)

• Use a high-speed memory card when re cording movies. If the write speed cannot keep up with the recording speed, the writing may stop during recording.

1 Open the monitor 180°

horizontally while holding the top and bottom of it.

2 Rotate the monitor 180°

• A new folder is created when Interval Shooting is performed, and the captured images are saved there. When shooting in another drive mode after performing Interval Shooting, another new folder is created.

• The shortest time that can be set f or [Interval] is 5 seconds for [Digital Filter] and [Clarity Enhancement], and 10 seconds for [HDR Capture] and Y mode.

• For Interval Shooting, Interval Composite, and Interval Movie Record, the second and later exposures start at the interval set in [Interval]. If the e xposure time is longer than the time set in [Interval], some of the pictures that are supposed to be taken at the set interval are not actually taken. For example, if the time set in [Interval] is 2 seconds and the exposure time is 3 seconds, the first exposure has not yet finished at the time the second exposure is supposed to be started (2 seconds after shooting has started), and so the second picture is not taken. As a result, Interval Shooting ends before the specified number of shots are taken. In such cases, you can set [Standby Interval] in [10 Interval Shooting Options] of the E2 menu so that pictures are taken at the set interval after each exposure ends. The screen displayed in Step 5 varies depending on the [10 Interval Shooting Options] setting.
