Approximate battery life

Number of pictures : 300 (at 30-sec intervals)

(equivalent to approx. 150 mins)

Values based on CIPA standards. (P.99)

Number reduced if intervals longer – approx. 75 pictures if 2-minute intervals

Playback time: Approx. 360 mins

Above figures may be reduced if intervals between recordings are longer; if flash, zoom, or LCD MODE are used frequently; or in colder climates (depends on actual usage).

Battery will be warm during charging and for some time thereafter.

Battery will run out if not used for long periods of time, even after being charged.

Charging battery frequently is not recommended.

(Frequently charging battery reduces maximum usage time and can cause battery to expand.) Do not disassemble or modify the charger.

If available battery power is significantly reduced, battery is reaching end of lifespan. Please purchase a new battery.

For your safety and to prevent damage to this camera, do not attempt to operate this camera with any non-Panasonic "after-market" brand battery.
