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

The actual recording time is an estimate in case that such operations as zooming is used or recording is stopped repeatedly. It may be shorter in the actual usage. (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.)
