How to Get the Most out of Your Battery Pack
How to Prépare the Rechargeable Battery Pack
Have sufficient battery pack power to do 2 or 3 times as
much recording than you have planned.
“Battery life” indicated in this manual is measured by
the continuous recording time of the camcorder,
placed at a room temperature using a full-charged
battery.
Battery life is shorter in a cold climate.
Battery efficiency is decreased and the battery will be
used up more quickly.
Turn STANDBY of the camcorder down when not recording
to save battery power.
A smooth transition between scenes can be made
even if recording is stopped and started again.
While positioning the subject or selecting an angle, or
looking through the viewfinder lens, the lens moves
automatically inside the camcorder and the battery is
used. The battery is also used when a tape is
inserted or removed.
When the Rechargeable Battery Pack Should Be Replace
When the CXi indicator and red lamp in the viewfinder
change from slow blinking to rapid blinking while you are
recording.
Turn off the power switch of the camcorder and
replace the battery pack. Leave the tape in the
camcorder in order to obtain a smooth transition
between scenes after the battery pack is replaced.
