If the < > switch is set to < > and nothing is displayed on the LCD panel, the
battery is probably installed incorrectly. Install the battery correctly and check the
battery level.
Even if the conditions described in 3 and 4 apply, a proper exposure will be
obtained as long as the shutter releases to take a picture.
The table shows the number of 24-exposure
rolls based on Canon’s tests with a new battery
and an EF 50mm f/1.4 USM lens. Figures in
parentheses are the number of 36-exposure
rolls.
Pressing the shutter button halfway and activating the autofocus will still consume
battery power even if no pictures are taken.
Since field conditions may differ, the actual number of rolls may be less than the
figures in the table.
Pressing the shutter button halfway for prolonged periods or frequent playing with
the autofocus without taking any pictures will lower the number of rolls that can be
taken.
