Preparing for Shooting
Preparing for Shooting
•Press the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover latch release ( 1) and 
rotate the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover latch ( 2) to open the 
cover ( 3).
• With the battery’s positive and negative terminals oriented correctly, move 
the orange battery latch ( 4), and fully insert the battery ( 5).
• Slide the memory card in until it clicks into place ( 6).
• Be careful not to insert the battery or memory card upside-down or 
backward, as this could cause a malfunction.
• Close the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover ( 7) and, while pressing 
it firmly against the camera so that the red portion on the side of the cover is 
hidden, rotate the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover latch until it 
clicks into place ( 8).
Make sure that the cover is securely locked.
BFormatting a Memory Card
The first time you insert a memory card that has been used in another device into 
this camera, make sure to format it with this camera. Insert the memory card into the 
camera, press the  d button, and select  Format card in the setup menu ( A78).
BNotes About Closing the Cover without Getting the Camera Strap 
or Cord Caught
If the camera strap’s cord gets caught  in the battery-chamber/memory card slot 
cover when it is closed, the cover could be damaged. Before closing the battery-
chamber/memory card slot cover, make sure that the strap or cord does not get 
caught in it.

Preparing for Shooting
BOpening/Closing the Battery-Chamber/Memory Card Slot Cover
Do not open and close the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover in a sandy or 
dusty environment or with wet hands. If the cover is closed without removing 
foreign particles, water may seep inside the camera or the camera may become 
damaged.
• If foreign particles get inside the cover or camera, immediately remove them with a 
blower or brush.
• If liquid such as water gets inside the cover or camera, immediately wipe it off with 
a soft and dry cloth.
Removing the Battery or Memory Card
Turn the camera off and make sure that the power-on lamp and monitor have 
turned off, and then open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover.
• Move the battery latch to eject the battery.
• Gently push the memory card into the camera to partially eject the memory 
card.
• Be careful when handling the camera, battery, and memory card 
immediately after using the camera, as they may become hot .
Memory Cards and Internal Memory
Camera data, including images and movies, can be saved either on a memory 
card or in the camera’s internal memory. To use the camera’s internal memory, 
remove the memory card.

Preparing for Shooting
1With the battery installed, connect the camera to an 
electrical outlet.
If a plug adapter* is included with your camera, securely connect it to the 
Charging AC Adapter. Once the two are connected, attempting to forcibly 
remove the plug adapter could damage the product.
* The shape of the plug adapter varies according to the country or region in 
which the camera was purchased. This step can be omitted if the plug 
adapter comes permanently bonded to the Charging AC Adapter.
• The charge lamp slowly flashes green to indicate that the battery is charging.
• When charging is complete, the charge lamp turns off. It takes about 2 hours 
and 20 minutes to charge a fully exhausted battery.
• The battery cannot be charged when the charge lamp quickly flashes green, 
possibly due to one of the reasons described below.
- The ambient temperature is not suited to charging.
- The USB cable or Charging AC Adapter is not properly connected.
- The battery is damaged.
2Disconnect the Charging AC Adapter from the electrical 
outlet and then disconnect the USB cable.

BNotes About the USB Cable
•Do not use a USB cable other than the UC-E21. Using a USB cable other than the 
UC-E21 could result in overheating, fire or electric shock.
• Make sure that the plugs are properly orie nted. Do not insert or remove the plugs 
at an angle when connecting or disconnecting them.
BNotes About Charging the Battery
• The camera can be operated while the battery is charging, but the charging time 
increases.
• If the battery level is extremely low, you may not be able to operate the camera 
while the battery is charging.
• Do not, under any circumstances, use another make or model of AC adapter other 
than Charging AC Adapter EH-71P/EH-71PCH, and do not use a commercially 
available USB-AC adapter or a battery charger for a mobile phone. Failure to 
observe this precaution could result in  overheating or in damage to the camera.
CCharging Using a Computer or Battery Charger
•You can also charge the battery by connecting the camera to a computer.
• You can use the Battery Charger MH-65 (available separately) to charge the battery 
without using the camera.
