Charging time: Approximate time in minutes required to fully charge a completely exhausted battery.

Recording/Playback time: Approximate time available when you have fully charged the battery.

Times shown above are measured under Samsung’s test conditions. Your times may differ, depending on your usage and conditions.

Continuous Recording (without zoom)

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

Using an AC power source

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

• The charging time will vary depending on the charge remaining in the battery.

Depending on your PC specifications, the charging time can be prolonged.

The battery is charged over 95% after about 2 hours, and the indicator colour changes to green. It takes about 2 hours and 40 minutes for the battery to charge 100%.

The recording and playback times will be shorter when you use your camcorder in low temperatures.

We recommend using the AC power adaptor when using the Art Time Lapse function.
