Good to know

Without a battery, the shutter won’t fire, and there’s no mechanical backup speed. [2]

When the battery warning blinks, the shutter release is locked and the viewfinder display goes dark. [2]

In addition to eight-segment TTL metering, you can select spot and center-weighted metering. [1]
