Sleep time-out for power
conservation
To conserve battery power, the Image Display turns off
automatically if there is no button activity for 30 seconds.
When the camera is connected to a computer, the Image
Display turns off automatically 10 seconds after the
connection is made. When the camera is in this sleep state,
pressing any button will wake up the camera again. If no
buttons are pressed during the sleep state, the camera will
turn off after an additional 5 minutes.
