Exposure Warning Indicators
Exposure warning indicators appear on the LCD whenever the light
being picked up by the lens would result in under exposure or over
exposure of an image.
Use the procedure described on page 42 to change the aperture or
change the lighting of the image so the indicator disappears from the
LCD.
Important!
• The exposure warning indicators also appear when lighting is out-
side the range of the camera. In such a case, changing the aperture
will not clear the indicator from the LCD.
• The manual exposure adjustment procedure (page 41) cannot be
used when an exposure warning indicator is on the LCD. Clear the
warning indicator by changing the aperture switch setting.

Low Battery Indicator
The low battery indicator ( ) appears on the LCD whenever re-
maining battery power drops below a certain level.
If you want to record more images, you must first delete some of the
images already stored in camera memory. See page 70 for details on
how to delete images.
When this indicator appears, replace all four batteries with a fresh set
of new ones. Once the low battery indicator appears, you can expect
only about 10 more minutes of operation before total power failure.
• See page 25 for details on how to replace batteries.
