Power Supply and Battery
Z Battery Features
The NP-95 gradually loses its charge even when not
used. Use a NP-95 that has been charged recently (in
the last day or two) to take pictures.
To maximize the life of the NP-95, turn the camera off
as quickly as possible when it is not being used.
The number of available frames will be lower in cold
locations or at low temperatures. Take along a spare
fully charged NP-95.
You can also increase the amount of power produced
by putting the NP-95 in your pocket or another warm
place to heat it and then loading it into the camera just
before you take a picture.
If you are using a heating pad, take care not to place the
NP-95 directly against the pad. The camera may not
operate if you use a depleted NP-95 in cold conditions.
Z Charging the Battery
You can charge the battery using the camera and the
AC power adapter (included).
The NP-95 can be charged at ambient temperatures
between 0°C and +40°C (+32°F and +104°F). At an
ambient temperature of +23°C (+73°F), it takes
approx. 4 hours to charge a fully depleted NP-95
battery.
You should charge the NP-95 at an ambient
temperature between +10°C and +35°C (+50°F and
+95°F). If you charge the NP-95 at a temperature
outside this range, charging takes longer because the
performance of the NP-95 is impaired.
You cannot charge the NP-95 at temperatures of 0°C
(+32°F) or below.
You can also use the optional Battery Charger BC-65S
to charge the NP-95. When charging, use the NP-95
battery adapter supplied with the BC-65S (Refer to the
Owner’s Manual for details).
The NP-95 can be charged using the BC-65S Battery
Charger at ambient temperatures between 0°C and
+40°C (+32°F and +104°F). At an ambient
temperature of +23°C (+73°F), it takes approx. 210
minutes to charge a fully depleted NP-95 battery.
You should charge the NP-95 at an ambient
temperature between +10°C and +35°C (+50°F and
+95°F). If you charge the NP-95 at a temperature
outside this range, charging takes longer because the
performance of the NP-95 is impaired.
The NP-95 does not need to be fully discharged or
exhausted flat before being charged.
The NP-95 may feel warm after it has been charged or
immediately after being used. This is perfectly normal.
Do not recharge a fully charged NP-95.
Notes on the Battery (NP-95)
This camera uses the Rechargeable Lithium-ion Battery
NP-95. Note the points below when using the
rechargeable battery. Take particular care to read the
Safety Notes to make sure that you use the battery
correctly.
*
When shipped, the NP-95 is not fully charged. Always
charge the NP-95 before using it.
When carrying the NP-95, install it in a digital camera.
