The above are values when “MONITOR BRIGHTNESS” is set to “3” (standard).

The actual recording time may be shorter if zooming is used or if recording is stopped repeatedly.
(It is recommended to prepare battery packs ready for three times the expected recording time.)

Recording time may differ depending on the shooting environment and usage.

When the battery life is reached, the recording time becomes shorter even if the battery pack is fully charged. (Replace the battery pack with a new one.)
