The AJ-PD900W supports the intelligent battery system and the ultra-light system. Automatic detection can be performed for intelligent batteries with a remaining battery level of 10% or more. At this time, the remaining battery level is displayed numerically (percent- age display) inside the viewfinder. If the power is turned on with a remaining battery level of 10% or less, the voltage is displayed. Also, after intelligent battery detection, the remaining battery level display indicates the level for the intelligent battery even if power is supplied from an external source.
