Charging, Recording and Playback Times
Below times are approximate and vary according to the charging, recording or
playback conditions.
* Approximate times for recording with repeated operations such as start/stop,
zooming, power on/off.
We recommend charging the battery pack in temperatures between 50 °F and
86 °F (10 °C and 30 °C). Outside the temperature range of 32 °F to 104 °F (0 °C
to 40 °C), the charge indicator flashes rapidly and charging stops.
A lithium ion battery pack can be charged at any charge state. Unlike
conventional battery packs, you do not need to completely use or discharge it
before charging.
To conserve battery power, turn off the camcorder instead of leaving it in record
pause mode.
We recommend that you prepare battery packs 2 to 3 times longer than you
think you might need.
