lRecordable time with fully charged
battery (with no zoom operation,
etc.)
The reference for DVD video camera/recorder
recordable time with fully charged battery is
between 40 and 60 minutes:
(approx.)
* The time in XTRA mode is only for reference: It varies
depending on recording contents.
Without any extraordinary operation,
such as zooming:
The continuously recordable time of DVD video
camera/recorder in the above table shows the time
available when the DVD video camera/recorder is
in the recording mode without using any other
function after recording is started. In actual
recording, the battery will discharge 2-3 times faster
than this reference, since the REC button and zoom
are being operated, and playback is performed.
Assume that the recordable time with a fully
charged battery is between 40 and 60 minutes, and
prepare the number of batteries to allow for the time
you are planning to record on the DVD video
camera/recorder.
Note that the battery discharges faster in cold
places.
lThe time taken for charging the
battery is 165 minutes at 25°C
Note:
• See page 142 when charging is not possible.
• The charge time will vary depending on the battery
remaining level.
• During and after charging, the battery will be warm, but
this does not indicate a fault.
• If the following phenomena appear, the battery may be
dead: Replace it.
- Charging does not start within 10 seconds (the
CHARGE indicator does not light).
- The battery cannot be charged up to 75% if more than
9 hours has elapsed after charging started.
- The battery cannot be fully charged if more than 5 hours
has elapsed after it was charged to 75%.
• Charge the battery at ambient temperature 10°C to 30°C:
Charging at temperatures other than this range could
damage the battery.
