Continuously recordable time with fully charged battery (with no zoom
operation, etc.)
See the following table as a reference for how long the DVD video camera/recorder can
continuously be used with a fully charged battery:
With DZ-BP14S (provided with DZ-GX3300A/GX3200A)/DZ-BP14SW (optional)
With DZ-BP07PW (provided with DZ-GX3100A/BX37A/BX35A)/DZ-BP7SW*

(optional)
The reference for how long the DVD video camera/recorder can actually be used
will be approx. 1/2 to 1/3 of the above time:
The continuously recordable time of DVD video camera/recorder in the above table shows the time
available when the DVD video camera/recorder is in the recording mode without using any other
function after recording is started. In actual recording, the battery will discharge 2 – 3 times faster
than this reference, since the REC button and zoom are being operated, and playback is performed.
Assume that the actually recordable time with a fully charged battery is between 1/2 and 1/3 of the
above time, and prepare enough batteries to allow for the time you are planning to record on the
DVD video camera/recorder.
The continuously recordable time may be less depending on the conditions when the DVD video
camera/recorder is used (if recording and recording pause are repeated at short intervals, etc.).
Note that the battery discharges faster in cold places.
Note
:
• See “Troubleshooting” on page 139 when charging is not possible.
• The charge time will vary depending on the battery remaining level.
• During and after charging, and when the DVD video camera/recorder is being used, the battery will be warm, but
this does not indicate a fault.
• A battery cannot be charged while the DC power cord is connected to the DC output jack of AC adapter/charger:
Unplug the DC power cord when charging a battery.
• Charge the battery at ambient temperature 50ºF to 86ºF (10ºC to 30ºC): Charging at temperatures other than this
range could damage the battery.
