Preparing the Power Supply
Press the BATT. INFO button to display the remaining battery charge (for 5
seconds). Depending on the battery life, the battery information may not be
displayed.
NOTES
• The first time you use a battery pack, fully charge it and then use the
camera until the battery pack is completely exhausted. Doing so will ensure that the remaining recording time
will be displayed accurately.
• Repeatedly charging and discharging the battery pack will eventually shorten its battery life. You can check the
battery life on the [Battery/Hour Meter] status screen (
A
183) or the battery information screen (press the
BATT. INFO button while the camera is turned off). Fully charging the battery pack and then discharging it will
give you a more accurate reading.
