Table of contents Sample photo Menu "InfoLITHIUM" battery packs Your camera operates only with an "InfoLITHIUM" battery pack NP-FW50. You cannot use any other battery packs. "InfoLITHIUM" W series battery packs are marked with . An "InfoLITHIUM" battery pack is a lithium-ion battery pack that has functions for communicating information related to operating conditions with the camera. The "InfoLITHIUM" battery pack calculates the power consumption according to the operating conditions of your camera, and displays the remaining battery time in percentages. On charging the battery pack We recommend charging the battery pack in an ambient temperature of between 10 °C and 30 °C (50 °F and 86 °F). The battery pack may not be effectively charged in temperatures outside this range. Effective use of the battery pack • Battery performance decreases in low temperature environments. So in cold places, the operational time of the battery pack is shorter. To ensure longer battery pack use, we recommend putting the battery pack in your pocket close to your body to warm it up, and insert it in the camera immediately before you start shooting. • The battery pack will run out quickly if you use the flash or record movies frequently. • We recommend preparing spare battery packs and taking trial shots before taking the actual shots. • Do not expose the battery pack to water. The battery pack is not water-resistant. • Do not leave the battery pack in extremely hot places, such as in a car or under direct sunlight. On the remaining battery time indicator • You can check the level with the following indicators and percent figures displayed on the LCD screen. "Battery exhausted." Battery level High Low You cannot shoot any more image. • If the power goes off even though the remaining battery time indicator indicates that the battery pack is fully charged, recharge the battery pack after fully discharging it in the camera. Remaining battery time will be indicated correctly. Note, however, that the battery indication will not be restored if it is used in high temperatures for a long time, or if left after being charged, or when the battery pack is frequently used. Use the remaining battery indication as a rough guide only. Index 185GB Continued r
