Weight Approx. 350 g (12.3 oz) with MS-D14EN and optional EN-EL15 battery Approx. 405 g (14.3 oz) with MS-D14 and six AA batteries (available separately from third-party suppliers) Approx. 290 g (10.2 oz) with MS-D14EN and optional EP-5B power connector Approx. 265 g (9.3 oz) with MS-D14EN Approx. 265 g (9.3 oz) with MS-D14 Specifications and design are subject to change without notice.

The performance of EN-EL15 batteries drops at temperatures below about 10 °C (50 °F). Be sure the battery is fully charged and keep a warm spare battery on hand ready to exchange as necessary. Cold batteries will recover some of their charge when warmed. D AA Batteries Due to their limited capacity, AA LR6 alkaline batteries should be used only when no other alternative is available. The capacity of AA batteries varies with make and storage conditions and may in some instances be extremely low; in some cases, AA batteries may cease to function before their expiry date. Note that the capacity of AA batteries may drop at temperatures below 20 °C (68 °F). Use is not recommended at low temperatures. 10
