Battery life and number of images that can be
recorded/viewed
The tables show the approximate number of
images that can be recorded/viewed and the
battery life when you shoot images in
[Normal] mode with batteries at full
capacity and at an ambient temperature of
25°C (77°F). The numbers of images that
can be recorded or viewed take into account
changing the “Memory Stick” as necessary.
Note that the actual numbers may be less
than those indicated depending on the
conditions of use.
• The battery capacity decreases as the number of
uses increases and also over time (page 93).
• The number of images that can be recorded/
viewed and the battery life are decreased under
the following conditions:
– The surrounding temperature is low
– The flash is used
– The camera has been turned on and off many
times
– The zoom is used frequently
– [LCD Backlight] is set to [Bright]
– [AF Mode] is set to [Monitor]
– The battery power is low

• Shooting in the following situations:
– (P.Quality) is set to [Fine]
– [AF Mode] is set to [Single]
– Shooting once every 30 seconds
– The zoom is switched alternately between the
W and T ends
– The flash strobes once every two times
– The power turns on and off once every ten
times
• The measurement method is based on the CIPA
standard.
(CIPA: Camera & Imaging Products
Association)
• Number of shooting image does not change
depending on the image size.
