Battery Life Guidelines
The battery life guideline values given below indicate the
amount of time at standard temperature (25
°
C (77
°
F)) until
power automatically turns off due to battery failure. They do
not guarantee that the battery will provide the amount of
service indicated. Low temperatures and continued use
reduce battery life.

• Recording one image per minute under the above
conditions reduces battery life to about one sixth of that
noted above.
• The above values are based on a new battery starting
from a full charge. Repeated charging shortens battery
life.
• Battery life is greatly affected by how much you use flash,
zoom and other functions, and how long you leave power
turned on.
