About the Battery

This camera uses the Rechargeable Battery DB-70, a dedicated lithium-ion battery supplied with the camera. It is economical because you can recharge it using the battery charger and use it over and over again.

Number of shots you can take ---------------------------------------------------------------

Approximate number of shots you can take on a single charge: Approx. 300

•Based on CIPA standard (Temperature: 23 degrees Celsius, LCD monitor on, 30 seconds between shots, changing the zoom setting from telephoto to wide-angle or wide-angle to telephoto for each shot, 50% flash usage, turning the power off after each 10 shots).

•Set the camera to synchro-monitor mode to increase the number of shots you can take. (GP.56)

•The number of shots is for reference only. If the camera is used for long periods of time for setting and playback, the shooting time (the number of shots) will decrease. If you intend to use the camera for a long period of time, we recommend carrying a spare battery.

Caution-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

•The battery may become very hot immediately after operation. Turn the camera off and leave it to cool down sufficiently before removing the battery.

•Please remove the batteries if you are not going to use the camera for a long period of time.

•When using a lithium-ion battery, use only the specified rechargeable lithium-ion battery (DB-70). Do not use other rechargeable lithium-ion batteries.
