Charging, Recording and Playback Times
The following times are approximate and vary according to the charging, recording and playback
conditions.
* Approximate times for recording with repeated operations such as start/stop, zooming, power on/off. Actual
time may be shorter.
We recommend charging the battery pack in temperatures between 10 °C and 30 °C.
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.
We recommend that you prepare battery packs 2 to 3 times longer than you think you might need.
To conserve battery power, turn off the camcorder instead of leaving it in record pause mode.
