• Approximate Operating Time (when the D-LI8 battery is fully charged)
Number of recordable images: Approx. 155 (at 23°C with the LCD monitor
on and the flash used for 50% of shots)
Playback time: Approx. 130 min.
Movie recording time: Approx. 65 min.
Sound recording time: Approx. 300 min.
• The number of recordable images are based on CIPA standard measurement
and may vary depending on capture mode and shooting conditions.
• Battery Level Indicator
You can check the battery level by the symbol on the LCD monitor.
• Always charge the battery before using the camera for the first time or
when the battery has not been used for a long time.
• Do not use the battery charging stand D-BC25 to charge batteries other
than D-LI8 rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, as the charging stand may
overheat or be damaged as a result.
• If the battery is inserted correctly but the charging indicator blinks, the
battery may be faulty. Replace with a new battery.
• In general, battery performance temporarily deteriorates as the
temperature decreases. When using the camera in a cold environment,
keep it warm by putting it in your pocket or inside your coat. Battery
performance that has deteriorated due to low temperature will be restored
when the battery is returned to room temperature.
• Be sure to take a spare battery with you when traveling abroad or to a
cold region, or if you intend to take a lot of pictures.
