Charging Environment

Perform charging where the temperature is between 10° and 30°C (50°F and 86°F). 20° to 25°C (68°F to 77°F)
is the ideal temperature range for charging. If the environment is too cold, charging may be incomplete.

Continuous Shooting

Continuous shooting is possible (See table below for recording time) under the following conditions:
•The temperature is approximately 20°C/68°F

However, . . .

•If the temperature is below 10°C/50°F, or
•If zoom or Record-Standby is engaged repeatedly, continuous shooting capability is reduced significantly.
Before extended use, it is recommended that you prepare enough battery packs to cover 3 times the
planned shooting time.
