Panavision Genesis Manual

–

V39
A RealTime battery display on the battery top graphically indicates
the amount of time left under normal circumstances.
Big numbers indicate hours, quarters of an hour are displayed in a
pie chart format. You can expect between 2 and 3 hours of battery
life with a normal package, including an on-board monitor. Most
crews take out 3-4 batteries per camera.
3 examples of time left indicated on RealTime battery display:
2 hours 15 minutes
45 minutes
Empty battery
Battery duration will change in extreme heat or cold.
When temperatures drop below zero, you should expect reduced
performance from the batteries.
When the temperature rises above 110 degrees, batteries should be
changed when their output nears 13 volts.
On the set, Panavision recommends getting in the habit of “battery
first”. That is, when moving the Genesis, plug in the battery first
and power up immediately, so that you can quickly see an image in
the viewfinder.
