Very useful information, thank you.
Also, nice fingernails!
I am a retired professional phographer with 60 years of experience and own several cameras including FX. Yet I didn’t remember how to change the clock battery on this little gem which I occasionally still use. Thanks for the refresher!
There is nothing in the manual concerning this battery. When I was told it needed replacement I was lucky to find this clear explanation to do it. It was a CR1220 battery. Thank you, Cooper Hale.
Hello! I did this but my camera keeps saying that the battery is empty. Anyone know what else I can try? Or is my camera just broken?
