Tips for using batteries
This section shows you how you can get the most out of your batteries.
Preparing the batteries
Always carry additional batteries
Have sufficient battery power to do 2 to 3 times as much recording as you have
planned.
Battery life is shorter in a cold environment
You cannot use size AA (LR6) batteries in a cold environment. Use the battery pack NP-
FIO.
Battery efficiency is decreased, and the battery pack will be used up more quickly, if
you are recording in a cold environment.
To save battery power
Turn off the camcorder when not recording to save battery power.
A smooth transition between scenes can be made even if recording is stopped and
started again. While you are positioning the subject, selecting an angle, or looking on
the LCD screen, the battery is used.
When to replace the battery
While you are using your camcorder, the remaining battery indicator decreases
gradually as battery power is used up. When you use the "InfoLITHIUM” battery pack,
remaining time in minutes appears.

Leave the video cartridge in the camcorder to obtain a smooth transition between
scenes after the battery pack has been replaced.
