Battery pack charging
Before using a battery pack, charge it as shown in the
following table.
For details of battery charger operation, refer to the
instructions provided with the battery charger to be used.
Notes
• A warm battery pack may not be able to be fully
recharged.
• Even when fully charged, battery packs gradually
lose their charge naturally. Use the battery packs as
soon as possible after recharging.
• To prolong the life of battery packs, store them in a
cool place (about 20°C (68°F)), and charge in a place
with an ambient temperature between 10°C and 30°C
(50°F and 86°F).
• At low temperatures, the usable time of battery packs
decreases. When the ambient temperature is 0°C
(32°F), usable time decreases by about 10%. The
usable time of battery packs increases if they are
warmed to the room temperature (about 20°C (68°F))
before use at low temperatures.
• Compared to the BP-L40, the BP-L60A offers better
performance at low temperature. The BP-L60A is
recommended for use at low temperature.
• Carrying a spare battery pack is recommended.
The BP-L40/L60A is free from memory effect.
There is no need to discharge it fully before
recharging.

Camera Adaptor Power Supply
The camera adaptor automatically operates on power
supplied to the VTR/CCU/CMA connector from the
portable VTR, CCU-M5A/M5AP Camera Control
Unit, CMA-8A/8ACE AC Adaptor or other connected
device.
Note
Before use, check that the device connected to the
VTR/CCU/CMA connector is able to provide the
power required by the camera.
If it is not able to provide the necessary power, or
when it is necessary to prolong the operating time, use
the camera with a separate power supply.
