■Battery Life Guidelines

The battery life guideline values given below indicate the approximate amount of time at a standard temperature of 23°C (73°F) until power automatically turns off due to battery failure. They do not guarantee that the batteries will provide the amount of service indicated. Low temperatures and continued use reduce battery life.

•AA-size alkaline batteries (LR6) can be used if they are the only option available to you. Note, however, that alkaline batteries provide about ten minutes or so of camera operation. Alkaline batteries may not provide any operation when the temperature is 5˚C(41˚F) or lower.

•The above approximate guidelines are based on the following battery types:

Rechargeable Nickel-Metal Hydride

:HR-3UA SANYO Electric Co., Ltd. Lithium : Energizer

*Battery life varies with brand.

*1 Number of Shots

•Normal temperature: 23°C (73°F)

•Monitor Screen: On

•Zoom operation between full wide to full telephoto every 30 seconds, during which two images are recorded, one image with flash; power turned off and back on every time 10 images are recorded.

*2 Continuous Playback Conditions

•Normal temperature: 23°C (73°F)

•Scroll one image about every 10 seconds

•The above values are based on new batteries starting from a full charge. Repeated charging shortens battery life.

•Battery life is greatly affected by how much you use flash, zoom and other functions, and how long you leave power turned on.

•The following shows approximate battery life for continuous recording while flash is off, when power is not turned off.
