●●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).
