● Continuously recordable time with
fully charged battery (with no zoom
operation, etc.)
See the following table as a reference for how long
the DVD video camera/recorder can continuously
be used with a fully charged battery:
For DZ-MV550A
For DZ-MV580A
*1 The XTRA mode can be set only when a DVD-RAM
disc is used. The time is only for reference: It will vary
depending on recording contents.
*2 LPCM mode can be set only when DVD-R disc is used.
The reference for how long the DVD video
camera/recorder can actually be used will
be approx. 1/2 to 1/3 of the above time:
The continuously recordable time of DVD video
camera/recorder in the left table shows the time
available when the DVD video camera/recorder is
in the recording mode without using any other
function after recording is started. In actual
recording, the battery will discharge 2-3 times
faster than this reference, since the REC button and
zoom are being operated, and playback is
performed. Assume that the actually recordable
time with a fully charged battery is between 1/2
and 1/3 of the above time, and prepare enough
batteries to allow for the time you are planning to
record on the DVD video camera/recorder.
The continuously recordable time may be less
depending on the conditions when the DVD video
camera/recorder is used (if recording and
recording pause are repeated at short intervals,
etc.).
Note that the battery discharges faster in cold
places.
● The time taken for charging the
battery is 165 minutes at 77ºF
(25ºC).
Note
:
• See page 172 when charging is not possible.
• The charge time will vary depending on the battery
remaining level.
• During and after charging, the battery will be warm, but
this does not indicate a fault.
• A battery cannot be charged while the DC power cord is
connected to the DC output jack of AC adapter/charger:
Unplug the DC power cord when charging a battery.
• Charge the battery at ambient temperature 50°F to 86°F
(10°C to 30°C): Charging at temperatures other than this
range could damage the battery.
