Guidelines for the number of recordable pictures and operating time
The number of recordable pictures or available operating time may vary according to
surrounding environment and usage conditions. Figures may be reduced if flash, zoom,
or other functions are used frequently, or in colder climates.
Number of recordable pictures Approx. 340 pictures
By CIPA standard
Recording time Approx. 170 min
●
Recording conditions by CIPA standard
• CIPA is an abbreviation of [Camera & Imaging
Products Association].
• [Program AE] Mode
• Temperature: 23 °C (73.4 °F)/Humidity:
50 %RH when LCD monitor is on.
∗
• Using a Panasonic SD Memory Card
(32 MB).
• Using the supplied battery.
• Starting recording 30 seconds after the
camera is turned on. (When the Optical
Image Stabilizer function is set to [ON].)
• Recording once every 30 seconds with full
flash every second recording.
• Rotating the zoom lever from Tele to Wide or
vice versa in every recording.
• Turning the camera off every 10 recordings
and leaving it until the temperature of the
battery decreases.
∗
The number of recordable pictures decreases when [LCD Mode] is used.
Number reduced if intervals are longer – e.g. to approx. one quarter for 2-minute
intervals under the above conditions.
Playback time Approx. 300 minutes
●
The time required for charging varies depending on conditions of battery usage.
Charging takes longer at high or low temperatures and when the battery has not been
used in some time.
●
Battery will be warm during charging and for some time thereafter.
●
Battery will run out if not used for long periods of time, even after being charged.
●
Charge the battery with the charger indoors (10 °C - 30 °C (50 °F - 86 °F)).
●
Keep any metal items (such as clips) away from the contact areas of the power plug.
Otherwise, a fire and/or electric shocks may be caused by short-circuiting or the
resulting heat generated.
●
We do not recommend frequently charging the battery.
(Frequently charging battery reduces maximum usage time and can cause battery to
expand.)
●
Do not disassemble or modify the charger.
●
If available battery power is significantly reduced, battery is reaching end of lifespan.
Please purchase a new battery.
●
The battery charger is in the standby condition when the AC power is supplied.
The primary circuit is always “live” as long as the battery charger is connected to an
electrical outlet.
●
When charging:
• Remove any dirt on connectors of charger and battery with dry cloth.
• Keep at least 1 m (3.28 feet) away from AM radio (may cause radio interference).
• Noises may be emitted from inside of charger, but this is not a fault.
• After charging, remove the charger from the wall socket, and then remove the battery
from the charger (up to 0.1 W consumed if left in place).
●
Do not use a damaged or dented battery (especially connectors), e.g. by dropping (can
cause faults).
