Effective use of the battery pack
• Battery performance decreases in
low-temperature surroundings. So,
the time that the battery pack can be
used is shorter in cold places. We
recommend the following to use the
battery pack longer:
— Put the battery pack in a pocket
closetoyourbodytowarmitup,
and insert it in your camera
immediately before you start
taking shots.
— Use the large capacity battery
pack (NP-F550, optional).
• Frequently using the LCD panel or
frequently operating the zoom wears
out the battery pack faster. We
recommend using the large capacity
battery pack (NP-F550, optional).

to off when not taking shots or
playing back on your camera.
• Procure spare batteries that can last
two or three times longer than the
expected recording time. Also, make
a trial recording before you record
the actual images.
• Do not expose the battery pack to
water. The battery pack is not water-
resistant.
Remaining battery time indicator
• If the power goes off although the
battery remaining indicator indicates
that the battery pack has enough
power to operate, charge the battery
pack fully again so that the indication
on the battery remaining indicator is
correct. Note, however, that the
correct battery indication sometimes
will not be restored if it is used in
high temperatures for a long time or
left in a fully charged state, or the
battery pack is frequently used.
Regard the remaining battery time
indication as the approximate
shooting time.
• The
E
mark indicating there is little
remaining battery time sometimes
flashes depending on the operating
conditions or ambient temperature
and environment even if the
remaining battery time is 5 to 10
minutes.
How to store the battery pack
• If the battery pack is not used for a
long time, do the following
procedure once per year to maintain
proper function.
1. Fully charge the battery.
2. Discharge on your camera.
3. Remove the battery from your
camera and store it in a dry, cool
place.

camera, leave the POWER switch to
on in PLAY mode until the power
goes off without a floppy disk or a
“Memory Stick” inserted.
Battery life
• The battery life is limited. Battery
capacity decreases little by little as
you use it more and more, and as
time passes. When the battery
operating time is shortened
considerably, a probable cause is that
the battery pack has reached the end
of its life. Please buy a new battery
pack.
• The battery life varies according to
how it is stored and operating
conditions and environment for each
battery pack.
