Continuous Recording (without zoom)

Using an AC power source

The continuous recording time above shows the available recording time when you record without using any other function after recording starts. The battery may discharge 2-3 times faster than this reference if you use the recording start/stop, the zoom, and the playback functions. Prepare additional batteries with the expectation that the actual recording time is about 1/3 to 1/2 of the times listed above.

Getting Started

We recommend that you use the AC power adaptor to power the camcorder from a household AC outlet when recording and playing the camcorder indoors. The connection is the same as that for battery charging. ¬page 20
