*

1

Approximate number of minutes required at 25°C (77°F) to charge an empty battery

pack. The charging time may increase if the battery’s temperature is extremely high
or low because of the ambient temperature.

*

2

Approximate number of minutes you can record when using a fully charged battery

pack.

*

3

Approximate number of minutes you can record, including starting/stopping,

zooming, and turning the power on/off. The actual battery life may be shorter.

Notes
•If the power goes off even though the remaining battery time indicator indicates that

the battery pack has enough power to operate, charge the battery pack fully again so
that the indication on the remaining battery time indicator is correct.

•Battery pack performance decreases in low-temperature surroundings and recording

may not be possible even though the battery time remaining may be as much as 20
minutes. Recharge the battery pack fully in this case.

•NP-FM30 is not recommended because of its short recording time when used with

your camcorder.
