Again for safety reasons it is best to keep spare batteries in the protective
case in which they are supplied to prevent short circuit on metal objects in
your pocket, or camera bag with the risk of fire or explosion.
During continuous use the battery (and the camera) might become quite
warm however this is normal and should not be considered as a
malfunction. (Unless the battery is so hot to touch that it causes personal
injury then the battery may be showing signs of failure).
As the battery is used and goes through discharge/charge cycles, the
battery will eventually lose its full capacity and the recording time or
number of shots will begin to diminish.
The “official” data for the recording time or pictures being able to be shot
is quoted to be 540 pictures or 270 minutes of recording in controlled
conditions and is only meant as a comparison guide between models.
Realistically the number of shots and recording time will be much lower
however this will be influenced by a host of factors like zoom used or flash
enabled etc., so be prepared!
