Battery Info
View information on the battery currently
inserted in the camera.
Item Description
Bat. meter The current battery level expressed as a percentage.
Pic. meter
The number of times the shutter has been released with the
current battery since the battery was last charged.
Note
that the camera may sometimes release the shutter without
recording a photograph, for example when measuring
preset white balance.
Calibration
[j]: Due to repeated use and recharging, calibration is
required to ensure that battery level can be measured
accurately; recalibrate battery before charging (pg. 437).
[—]: Calibration not required.
Charging life
A five-level display showing battery age.
0 (k) indicates
that battery performance is unimpaired, 4 (l) that the
battery has reached the end of its charging life and should
be replaced.
Note that batteries charged at temperatures
under about 5 °C (41 °F) may show a temporary drop in
charging life; the charging life display will however return to
normal once the battery has been recharged at a
temperature of about 20 °C (68 °F) or higher.
