1. PRELIMINARY STEPS
Pass the smaller loop end of the strap through the
camera’s strap lug.
Next, pass the longer loop end of the strap through
the smaller loop, and pull the longer loop end.
✻When using a commercial strap, check the
strength and other properties of the strap.
Because straps for cellular telephones, PHS, etc.
are for light devices, be especially careful when
using them.

✻One lithium battery has enough power for taking
approximately 300 shots (Based on our test
conditions).

obtain batteries).
✻Do not load the cartridge before inserting the
battery.
Slide the battery compartment cover toward the
arrow q, then open the cover in the direction of the
arrow w.
Insert the – side of the battery first then the + side
according to the sign, then close the battery
compartment cover.
✻After changing the battery, be sure to set the date
again. (The method for setting the date is shown
on Fig.8.)
