View shooting, and CIPA (Camera
&Imaging Products Association) testing
standards.
@ Battery Grip BG-E7 approximately doubles the number of possible shots with
two LP-E6 batteries installed. With size-AA/LR6 alkaline batteries, the number
of possible shots at 23°C 173°F is approx. 400 shots without flash use and
approx. 300 shots with 50% flash use.
~ ~ The number of possible shots will decrease with any of the following
operations:
• Pressing the shutter button halfway for a prolonged period.
• Often activating only the AF without taking a picture.
• Using the LCD monitor often.
• Using the lens Image Stabilizer.
• The lens operation is powered by the camera's battery. Depending on
the lens used, the number
of possible shots may be lower.
• For battery life with Live View shooting, see page 133.
.. See the [~: Battery info.] menu to further check the battery's condition
