Using AA Batteries
EN-EL3e batteries are recommended for best performance. Fewer pictures can be taken with AA bat-
teries than with EN-EL3e batteries. The capacity of AA batteries drops sharply at temperatures below
20 ˚C (68 ˚F) and varies with make and storage conditions; in some cases, batteries may cease to func-
tion before their expiry date. Some AA batteries can not be used; due to their performance characteris-
tics and limited capacity, alkaline and nickel-manganese batteries should only be used when no other
alternative is available. The camera shows the level of AA batteries as follows:
Control panel View nder Description
– Batteries fully charged.
Low battery. Ready fresh batteries.

Shutter release disabled. Insert fresh batteries.
32: MB-D80 Batteries (All Modes)
To ensure that the camera functions as expected when AA batteries are
used in the optional MB-D80 battery pack, match the option selected in
this menu to the type of batteries inserted in the battery pack. There is
no need to adjust this option when using EN-EL3e batteries.
