z You might notice that occasionally the battery gauge will fluctuate with the same battery. This occurs because some operating modes, such as Live View or video recording, consume more power than other modes. This will cause the battery gauge to indicate that your battery level is lower, because battery operating time in those modes is shorter. When you switch to a mode that requires less power, like Playback, the battery gauge may go up, indicating that there is more operating time left in the battery if you stay in that mode. Extending Battery Life Here are some tips for extending battery life: z Turn off the Image Display and use the viewfinder instead when framing pictures and video. Leave the Image Display off whenever possible. z Change the Live View at Power On setting in the Setup Menu to Live View Off, so that your camera does not power on in Live View (see Live View at Power On on page 104). z Minimize the use of flash by setting your camera to Auto Flash, instead of Flash On (see Setting the Flash on page 41). z Use optical zoom only when necessary to minimize moving the lens (see Optical Zoom on page 40). z Minimize unnecessary power cycling. If you expect to average more than two picture every five minutes, leave the camera on with the Image Display off, rather than turning off the camera after each shot. This minimizes the number of times the lens must extend and retract. 152 HP Photosmart R507/R607 User's Manual
