The number of recordable pictures, recording time, and playback time vary, depending
on the storage and operating conditions of the batteries, the brand and type of
batteries.
We recommend using [Economy] (→49) or turning off the camera frequently between
recording sessions to save battery power. If you are going to use the camera for
long periods of time, the use of rechargeable Ni-MH batteries is recommended. If
the available battery power is significantly reduced even when fully charged Ni-MH
batteries are used, the batteries have reached the end of their life. Please purchase
new batteries.
Do not use a damaged or dented battery (especially connectors), e.g. by dropping
(can cause faults).
