Battery performance may vary greatly
depending on the brand used and

Battery performance temporarily
deteriorates in low temperature
conditions [10 °C (50 °F) or less].
However, it recovers when the
temperature returns to normal.

Depending on the temperature and the
conditions of use, the camera may not
operate properly and the batteries may
become exhausted without warning
because the battery indication is
not displayed correctly. This is not a
malfunction.
We recommend turning the camera off
frequently while recording to conserve
battery power for longer battery life. If
you will be using the camera for long
periods of time, using rechargeable Ni-
MH batteries is recommended.
Exhausted batteries may recover some
performance if left for a period of time.
However, they cannot be used for a long
time. Be sure to replace them with new
batteries.
Unusable batteries
