The battery
In addition to the batteries provided with the camera, the following types of
battery can be used. Choose the power source best suited to the situation.
(AA (R6) alkaline batteries
When you need batteries in a hurry, you can use AA (R6) alkaline batteries, which are
easy to obtain anywhere. However, the number of pictures that you can take may vary
considerably depending on the battery manufacturer, shooting conditions, etc.
This camera uses two AA (R6) alkaline batteries.
(NiMH batteries (rechargeable batteries)
Olympus NiMH batteries are rechargeable and economical. However, repeatedly charging
the batteries before using up their capacity will shorten the life of the batteries per charge.
The batteries are not fully charged at the time of purchase. Charge the batteries with the
battery charger specified by Olympus before use. For details, refer to the instruction
manual for your charger.
This camera uses two NiMH batteries.

allowing you to use the camera longer than with alkaline
batteries. However, it cannot be recharged. Do not remove the
label on the battery pack.
