The charging time and recordable time shown in
the table are approximations. The times indicate
the recordable time when the viewfinder is used.

We recommend the Battery Pack CGA-DU12

or more for continuous recording, 1 hour or
more for intermittent recording).
The recordable time will become shorter in the
following cases:

LCD monitor simultaneously while rotating
the LCD monitor frontward to record yourself,
using the 0 lux MAGICPIX function, etc.
When you use this Camcorder with the LCD
monitor lit up by pressing the [POWER LCD]
button.
The batteries heat up after use or charging. The
