Camera Operation Time Using the Battery
The length of time for which the camera will operate on battery power varies considerably
depending on a number of factors, including the battery's storage time, the temperature of the
battery and camera, and the shooting conditions (whether the flash and zoom are used, etc.).
Dirt and/or other debris on the positive (+) and/or negative (
–
) battery terminals, or on the
corresponding terminals in the camera, can obstruct current flow and the camera to incorrectly
indicate that the battery is not charged. When loading and removing the battery, take care not
to touch the battery or camera terminals. If the battery and/or camera terminals are dirty, clean
them with a clean, dry cloth.
The available video recording times when a new battery is fully charged are shown below.

of 73°F (23°C)

73°F (23°C)
