Charging and recording time Charging/Recording time ≥ The times given apply when the ambient operating temperature is 25 oC (77 oF) and the relative operating humidity is 60%. Charging time may be longer at other temperatures and humidity levels. ≥ These charging times are for when the unit is turned off. ≥ The maximum continuous recordable times and the actual recordable times are based on the conditions below. These become shorter in other conditions. j When [REC MODE] is set to [AVCHD] and [REC FORMAT] is set to [PH 1080/59.94i] j When using the viewfinder (times in parentheses are when using the LCD monitor) j A cable is not inserted to the external output terminal Battery model number Supplied battery (VW-VBD29) Voltage/Capacity Time required to (minimum) charge this unit 7.2 V/2900 mAh 3 h 15 min Maximum continuous recordable time 4 h 35 min (4 h 35 min) Actual recordable time 2 h 25 min (2 h 25 min) ≥ "h" is an abbreviation for hour, "min" for minute and "s" for second. ≥ These times are approximations. ≥ The indicated charging time is for when the battery has been discharged completely. Charging time and recordable time vary depending on the usage conditions such as high/ low temperature. ≥ If this unit is turned on, charging may take longer than the values in the table above. ≥ The actual recordable time refers to the recordable time when repeatedly starting/stopping recording, turning the unit on/off, moving the zoom lever etc. ≥ The batteries heat up after use or charging. This is not a malfunction.
