Notes:

•Using the zoom (see page 17) and other functions or turning the power on and off frequently will increase power consumption. This may result in a decrease of more than 50% in the actual recording time compared to the maximum continuous recording time listed above.

•The charging time and recording time may vary depending on the ambient temperature and the condition of the battery pack.

•It is recommended that you have enough battery packs on hand to provide two to three times your estimated recording time.

•See page 50 for more information on using the battery pack.
