used with the DSC-P71)
* Use of AA alkaline batteries may result in
shorter than desired operating time. (only in the
DSC-P51/P31)
When alkaline batteries are used, take note of
the following information.
• Turn POWER SAVE to ON, shut the LCD
screen off, and use the Finder to shoot your
images. This will lengthen battery life
(page 16).
• There is a big difference in the performance
of batteries of different types and of batteries
made by different manufacturers. This is
especially true in low temperatures, where
some batteries are noticeably weaker.
You may not be able to shoot in temperatures
below +5°C (41°F).
• Be sure to charge the Nickel-Metal Hydride
batteries supplied with your camera before
using them.
• Be sure to charge the batteries in an
environment where the ambient temperature is
10°C to 30°C (50°F to 86°F). If the batteries are
charged in an environment where the
temperature is outside that range, the batteries
may not charge efficiently.
• Connect the battery charger to an easily
accessible wall outlet (mains) close by. If
something goes wrong while you are using the
charger, immediately shut off the power by
pulling the plug out of the wall outlet.
Charging starts, and the charge lamp lights.
When the charge lamp goes out, charging is
finished.
• When charging is finished, disconnect the
power cord (mains lead) from the wall outlet
(mains), and remove the Nickel-Metal Hydride
batteries from the charger.
• When transporting the Nickel-Metal Hydride
batteries, be sure to use the battery case
(supplied). If the +/− metal terminals are
shorted, there is a possibility of danger from
excessive heat or fire.
• The battery remaining indicator may not
display the correct information.

Charging the Nickel-Metal
Hydride batteries
Precautions to be observed
when charging the batteries
Charging time
Nickel-Metal
Hydride battery
Charging time
• If the poles of the Nickel-Metal Hydride
batteries are dirty, the batteries may not
charge properly. Occasionally clean the poles
of the batteries and the terminals of the
charger by wiping them with a dry cloth.
• At the time of purchase, or when the Nickel-
Metal Hydride batteries haven’t been used for
a long time, they may not fully charge. This is
typical of this type of battery, and is not a
malfunction. If this happens, repeatedly using
up the battery fully, and then recharging it,
should correct the problem.
• Even when Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries
are not being used they loose their charge
naturally over time. It is recommended that
you recharge the batteries just before using
them.
• Do not charge any other batteries except Sony
Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries in the charger
supplied with your camera. If you try to
charge any other type of battery (e.g.,
manganese batteries, alkaline dry cells, or
one-time lithium batteries) than the batteries
specified, those batteries may leak, overheat,
or explode, causing the danger of burns or
other injuries.
NH-AA-DI × 2
(supplied)
Approx. 13
hours
This represents the time required to charge
fully depleted Nickel-Metal Hydride
batteries using the supplied BC-CS1
charger in an environment where the
ambient temperature is 25°C (77°F).
• Be sure to charge both Nickel-Metal Hydride
batteries at the same time.
• Charging is complete in approximately 13
hours. The charge lamp may remain lit longer
than 13 hours, but this is not a malfunction.
• If you use the ACC-CSNQ STAMINA “Super
Quick charge” kit (not supplied), the batteries
will charge faster.
• When the batteries are charged, use them only
in an environment where the temperature
range is 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F).
Otherwise, there is a danger of leaks,
explosions, excessive heat, fire, or electric
shock.
• If you recharge Nickel-Metal Hydride
batteries before fully using up the existing
charge, the so-called memory effect* can
occur, and the low battery warning will be
triggered sooner than expected. Charging the
battery after fully depleting the existing
charge should correct the problem.
* The “memory effect” – the situation in
which a battery temporarily accepts a less
than full charge.
• Do not charge fully charged Nickel Metal
Hydride batteries again. Otherwise, there is a
danger of leaks, explosions, excessive heat,
fire, or electric shock.
• Do not peel off the external seals or damage
the batteries. Never use batteries from which
the seals have been partially or completely
removed, or batteries that have been split in
any way.
• To use up the batteries completely, put
the camera in the slide show mode and
leave it that way until the batteries are
used up (page 67).

The POWER SAVE function
As the battery power decreases with use,
the Battery remaining indicator displays
the amount of power remaining using the
following symbols.
When the POWER SAVE function is set
to ON, you can shoot for a longer period of
time.
• The LCD screen will be darker than it is when
POWER SAVE is set to OFF. You cannot
change the settings for [LCD BACKLIGHT]
at this time (page 98). To make the available
shooting time even longer, it is recommended
that you turn off the LCD screen and use the
Finder to do your shooting (page 32).

• Occasionally clean the poles of the batteries
and the terminals of the Battery cover by
wiping them with a dry cloth. If the poles of the
batteries or the terminals become covered with
a film of dirt or oil from the skin, the operating
time of the camera can be greatly reduced.
To remove the batteries
Stand the camera on end, open the Battery
cover upward, then remove the batteries.
• Make sure you don’t drop the batteries when
opening or closing the Battery cover.

The number of images* that can be saved in a “Memory Stick”
You can choose image size (number of
pixels) and image quality (compression
ratio) based on the kind of images you
want to shoot. The larger you make the
image size and the higher you make the
image quality, the better your image, but
also the larger the amount of data needed
to preserve your image. This means you
can save fewer images in your “Memory

• When you are shooting movies (MPEG
MOVIE) and you choose Multipoint AF, the
distance to the center of the screen is estimated
as an average, so the AF works even with a
certain amount of vibration. The Center AF
automatically focuses only on the center of the
image, so it is convenient when you want to
focus only on what you aim at.

When you use Multipoint AF, it calculates

Shooting with the AF lock
using Center AF
If it is difficult to focus because the subject
is not in the center of the frame, you can
focus in this situation using the AF range
finder. For example, when you are shooting
two human subjects, and there is a gap
between them, the camera may focus on the
background visible in the gap. In a case like
this, use AF lock to ensure the subjects are
in correct focus.
When you hear a beeping sound, the
image will be recorded with the proper
focus for the human subjects.
First, the focus for the subject you are
aiming at will be adjusted. When the
AE/AF lock indicator stops flashing
and remains on, and there is a beeping
sound, focus adjustment is completed.

On moisture condensation
If the camera is brought directly from a cold
to a warm location, or is placed in a very
damp room, moisture may condense inside
or outside the camera. This moisture
condensation may cause a malfunction of
the camera.
The internal rechargeable button
battery
This camera has an internal rechargeable
button battery for maintaining the date and
time and other settings regardless of
whether the power is on or off.
This rechargeable button battery is
continually charged as long as you are using
the camera. However, if you use the camera
for only short periods it discharges
gradually, and if you do not use the camera
at all for about one month it becomes
completely discharged. In this case, be sure
to charge this rechargeable button battery
before using the camera.
Note that even if this rechargeable button
battery is not charged, you can still use the
camera as long as you do not record the date
and time.
Precautions
Cleaning
Cleaning the LCD screen
Clean the screen surface with an LCD
cleaning kit (not supplied) to remove
fingerprints, dust, etc.
Moisturecondensationoccurseasily
when:
• The camera is brought from a cold
location such as a ski slope into a warmly
heated room.
• The camera is taken from an air-
conditioned room or car interior to the hot
outdoors, etc.
Cleaning the lens
Wipe the lens with a soft cloth to remove
fingerprints, dust, etc.
Cleaning the camera surface
Clean the camera surface with a soft cloth
slightly moistened with water, then wipe
the surface with a dry cloth. Do not use any
type of solvent such as thinner, alcohol or
benzine as this may damage the finish or the
casing.
To prevent moisture condensation
When bringing the camera from a cold
place to a warm place, seal the camera in a
plastic bag and leave it in the new location
for about an hour. Remove the plastic bag
when the camera has adapted to the new
temperature.
Charging the battery
Connect the camera to a wall outlet (mains)
using the AC power adapter or install a
charged battery pack, and leave the camera
for 24 hours or more with the POWER
button set to OFF.
Note on operating temperature
The camera is designed for use within a
temperature range of 0° to 40° (32°F to
104°F). Shooting in extremely cold or hot
locations that exceed this range is not
recommended.
If moisture condensation occurs
Turn off the camera and wait about an hour
for the moisture to evaporate. Note that if
you attempt to shoot with moisture
remaining inside the lens, you will be
unable to record clear images.

• You cannot record or delete images when the
write-protect tab is set to LOCK. The position
or the shape of the write-protect tab may differ
depending on the “Memory Stick” you use.
The “Memory Stick”
“Memory Stick” is a new compact, portable
and versatile IC recording medium with a
data capacity that exceeds the capacity of a
floppy disk.
The nickel hydride
batteries
Connector
Effective use of the battery
• Battery performance decreases in low-
temperature surroundings, and the battery
life is shortened under such
circumstances. To use the battery longer,
we recommend you keep the battery in a
pocket close to your body to warm it, and
insert it in your camera just before you
start shooting.
• If you use the LCD screen or shoot a lot
using the zoom, the battery power will be
used up faster.
• We recommend having spare batteries
handy for two or three times the expected
shooting time, and try test shooting
before the actually using the camera.
• Do not expose the battery to water. The
battery is not water-resistant.
There are two types of “Memory Stick”: an
ordinary “Memory Stick” and a
Write-protect
tab
“MagicGate Memory Stick” that are
equipped with the MagicGate copyright
protection technology. You can use both
types of “Memory Stick” with your camera.
However, because your camera does not
support the MagicGate standards, data
recorded with your camera is not subject to
MagicGate* copyright protection.
Labeling position
• Do not remove the “Memory Stick” while
reading or writing data.
• Data may be damaged in a location subject to
the effects of static electricity or noise.
• Do not attach any other material than the
supplied label on the labeling position.
• When you carry or store the “Memory Stick,”
put it in the case supplied with it.
• Do not touch the terminals of a “Memory
Stick” with your hand or a metal object.
• Do not strike, bend or drop a “Memory Stick.”
• Do not disassemble or modify a “Memory
Stick.”
* MagicGate is copyright protection technology
that uses encryption technology.
• Do not expose the “Memory Stick” to water.

• The battery life is limited. Battery
capacity decreases little by little as you
use it more and more, and as time passes.
When the battery operating time seems to
have been considerably shortened, a
probable cause is that the battery pack has
reached the end of its life.
• The battery life varies depending on
storage, operating conditions, and
environment, and is different for each
battery pack.
