∫ The lifetime of the battery
The number of recordable pictures by
CIPA standards
• CIPA is an abbreviation of [Camera &
Imaging Products Association].
(Recording conditions by CIPA standards)
• Temperature: 23°C/Humidity: 50% when
LCD monitor is on.
• Using SD Memory Card (supplied: 16MB).
• Using the supplied battery.
• Recording starts 30 seconds after the
camera is turned on.
• Record once every 30 seconds, with full
flash every other recording.
• Rotating the zoom lever towards Tele to
Wide and vice versa in every recording.
• Turn the camera off every 10 recordings.
• When the Power LCD function (P24) is
used, the number of recordable pictures
decreases.
Playback time
The number of recordable pictures and
playback time will vary depending on the
operating conditions and storing condition
of the battery.
∫ Charging
Charging time and the number of
recordable pictures with the optional
battery pack (CGA-S004E) are the same
as the above.
• When charging starts, the [CHARGE]
indicator lights.
∫ Charging error
• If the [CHARGE] indicator is changed
from lighting to blinking, this is a charging
error. In this case, disconnect the AC
cable from the electrical outlet, detach the
battery and then make sure if both room
and battery temperature are not too low or
high. If the temperature is between
10
oC – 35oC, recharge the battery. If the
[CHARGE] indicator does not turn off
properly and still starts blinking after you
completed recharging the battery, consult
the dealer.
• When the operating time of the camera
becomes extremely short even if the
battery is properly charged, the life of the
battery may have expired. Buy a new
battery.
∫ Charging conditions
• Charge the battery under temperature of
10 oC – 35oC. (Battery temperature should
be the same also.)
• The performance of the battery may be
temporarily deteriorated and the operating
time may become shorter in low
temperature conditions (e.g. skiing/
snowboarding).
