EXTERNAL POWER SUPPLIES (SOLD SEPARATELY)
CHANGING THE COMPACTFLASH CARD
The AC Adapter allows the camera to be powered from an electrical household outlet.
The AC Adapter is recommended when the camera is interfaced with a computer or
during periods of heavy use. AC Adapter model AC-1Lis for use in North America, Japan,
and Taiwan; AC-2L is for use in all other areas.
The External High-power Battery Pack Kit EBP-100 is a portable source of power for the
camera. The kit contains a high-power lithium-ion battery, holder, and charger. The
battery and charger are also available separately. This battery pack will significantly
extend the operating time of the camera.
A type I CompactFlash card must be inserted for the camera to operate. If a card has not
been inserted, a no-card warning will automatically be displayed on the monitor and three
dashes (– – –) will be displayed on the data-panel frame counter. For CompactFlash card
care and storage, see page 109.
Slide the card-slot door release down to open the card-slot door (1).
To eject a CompactFlash card, press the card-eject lever (2). The card can now be pulled
out. Take care when removing the card as it becomes hot with use.
Insert the memory card into the card slot until the card-eject lever pops out (3). Insert the
card so the face is toward the front of the camera. Always push the card in straight, never
at an angle. Never force the card. If the card does not fit, check that it is oriented
correctly.
Close the card-slot door (4).
A card used in another camera may have to be formatted before being used. A card is
formatted in the basic section of the setup menu (p. 84); this operation permanently
erases all data on the card. If the unable-to-use-card message appears, the card is not
compatible with the camera and cannot be formatted.
Always turn off the camera and confirm the access lamp is not lit before
inserting or removing a CompactFlash card, otherwise the card may be
damaged, and data lost.
Always turn off the camera before changing between
power supplies.
Remove the DC terminal cover from the left. The cover
is attached to the body to prevent loss.
Insert the mini plug of the AC adapter or battery pack
into the DC terminal. Always remove exhausted
batteries before connecting an external power supply.
Wait thirty seconds between removing the old batteries
and plugging in the external power source.
Insert the AC adapter plug into an electrical outlet.
