On internal rechargeable button 
battery
This camera has an internal rechargeable 
button battery for maintaining the date and 
time and other settings regardless of 
whether the power is on or off. 
This rechargeable button battery is 
continually charged as long as you are using 
the camera. However, if you use the camera 
for only short periods it discharges 
gradually, and if you do not use the camera 
at all for about one month it becomes 
completely discharged. In this case, be sure 
to charge this rechargeable button battery 
before using the camera. 
However, even if this rechargeable button 
battery is not charged, you can still use the 
camera as long as you do not record the date 
and time. 
Charging method
Connect the camera to a wall outlet (mains) 
using the AC Adaptor, or install a charged 
battery pack, and leave the camera for 24 
hours or more with the power off. 
The rechargeable button battery is located 
inside the cover next to the tripod screw hole on 
the bottom of the camera. Never remove the 
rechargeable button battery except when 
disposing of the camera.
On “Memory Stick”
“Memory Stick” is a new compact, portable 
and versatile IC recording medium with a 
data capacity that exceeds the capacity of a 
floppy disk. 
In addition to exchanging data between 
“Memory Stick” compatible equipment, 
you can also use a “Memory Stick” to store 
data as a type of detachable external 
recording media. 
There are two types of “Memory Stick”: an 
ordinary “Memory Stick” and a 
“MagicGate Memory Stick” that is 
equipped with the MagicGate* copyright 
protection technology. You can use both 
types of “Memory Stick” with your camera.
However, because your camera does not 
support the MagicGate standards, data 
recorded with your camera is not subject to 
MagicGate copyright protection.
In addition, you can also use “Memory 
Stick Duo” or “Memory Stick PRO” with 
your camera.
* MagicGate is copyright protection technology 
that uses encryption technology. 
“Memory Stick” formatted with a computer is 
not guaranteed to operate with this camera.
** The camera cannot record or play back the 
data needed by the MagicGate function. 
All Memory Stick media operations are not 
necessarily guaranteed.
Notes on using the supplied 
“Memory Stick”
You cannot record or delete images when the 
write-protect switch is set to LOCK.  
The position or the shape of the write-protect 
switch may differ depending on the “Memory 
Stick” you use.
Do not remove the “Memory Stick” while 
reading or writing data.

Data may be corrupted in the following cases.
– When the “Memory Stick” is removed or the 
camera is turned off during read or write 
operation
– When the “Memory Stick” is used in 
locations subject to static electricity or 
electrical noise
We recommend backing up important data.
Do not attach any other material than the 
supplied label on the labeling position. 
Attach the label in the prescribed label location, 
taking care that the label does not extend from 
this location.
When you carry or store the “Memory Stick,” 
put it in the case supplied with it. 
Do not touch the terminal of a “Memory Stick” 
with your hand or a metal object. 
Do not strike, bend or drop a “Memory Stick.” 
Do not disassemble or modify a “Memory 
Stick.”
Do not expose the “Memory Stick” to water. 
Do not use or keep the “Memory Stick” under 
the following conditions:
– High temperature locations such as the hot 
interior of a car parked in direct sunlight
– Locations exposed to direct sunlight
– Humid locations or locations with corrosive 
substances
Notes on using “Memory Stick Duo” 
(not supplied)
When using a “Memory Stick Duo” with your 
camera, be sure to insert the “Memory Stick 
Duo” into a Memory Stick Duo Adaptor.
When inserting a “Memory Stick Duo” into a 
Memory Stick Duo Adaptor, check to make 
sure the “Memory Stick Duo” is inserted facing 
the correct direction.
When using a “Memory Stick Duo” inserted 
into a Memory Stick Duo Adaptor with this 
camera, make sure that the “Memory Stick 
Duo” is inserted facing the correct direction. 
Note that improper use may damage the 
equipment.
Do not insert a Memory Stick Duo Adaptor 
without a “Memory Stick Duo” attached. Doing 
so may result in malfunction of the unit.
Note on using “Memory Stick PRO” 
(not supplied)
“Memory Stick PRO” with a capacity up to 1GB  
can be used with this camera.
On “InfoLITHIUM” 
battery pack
What is the “InfoLITHIUM” 
battery pack?
The “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack is a 
lithium-ion battery pack that has functions 
for communicating information related to 
operating conditions of your camera.
The “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack 
calculates the power consumption 
according to the operating conditions of 
your camera, and displays the remaining 
battery time in minutes.
Charging the battery pack
We recommend charging the battery pack 
in an ambient temperature of between 10°C 
to 30°C (50
°
F to 86
°
F). You may not be 
able to efficiently charge the battery pack 
outside of this temperature range.

Effective use of the battery pack
• Battery performance decreases in low-
temperature surroundings. So, the time that 
the battery pack can be used is shorter in 
cold places. We recommend the following 
to ensure longer battery pack use:
– Put the battery pack in a pocket close to 
your body to warm it up, and insert it in 
your camera immediately before you 
start shooting.
• Frequently operating the zoom or flash 
wears out the battery charge faster.
• We recommend having spare battery 
packs handy for two or three times the 
expected shooting time, and making trial 
shots before taking the actual shots.
• Do not expose the battery pack to water. 
The battery pack is not water-resistant.
Remaining battery time indicator
The power may go off although the battery 
remaining indicator shows there is enough 
power to operate. Use the battery pack up 
and charge the battery pack fully again so 
that the indication on the battery remaining 
indicator is correct. Note, however, that the 
correct battery indication sometimes will 
not be restored if the camera is used in high 
temperatures for a long time or left in a fully 
charged state, or the battery pack is 
frequently used. 
How to store the battery pack
• If the battery pack is not to be used for a 
long time, do the following procedure 
once per year to maintain proper function.
1
Fully charge the battery.
2
Discharge on your camera.
3
Remove the battery from your camera 
and store it in a dry, cool place.
• To use the battery pack up on your 
camera, leave the POWER button to on in 
slide show playback mode (page 70) until 
the power goes off.
Battery life
• The battery life is limited. Battery 
capacity decreases little by little as you 
use it more and more, and as time passes. 
When the battery operating time is 
shortened considerably, a probable cause 
is that the battery pack has reached the 
end of its life. Buy a new battery pack.
• The battery life varies according to how it 
is stored and the operating conditions and 
environment for each battery pack.
