These times are approximations.

The indicated charging time is for when the battery has been discharged completely. Charging time and recordable time vary depending on the usage conditions such as high/low temperature.

The actual recordable time refers to the recordable time when repeatedly starting/stopping recording, turning the unit on/off, moving the zoom lever etc.

The batteries heat up after use or charging. This is not a malfunction.

Battery capacity indication

The display changes as the battery capacity reduces.

# # # # (red)

When the charge is low, is displayed at the centre of the LCD monitor.

Due to the characteristics of the battery, it may not be possible to correctly display the charge remaining on the battery. For instance,

at low temperatures, the indicator may turn on earlier. Because the status of the charge remaining indicator changes according to the ambient temperature, conditions of use, etc., the indicator should be considered as an approximate guide.
